Which plier is used to place tiny screws in hard-to-reach places?

• A. Nylon-Jawed
• B. Needle-nose
• C. Pad-angling
• D. Wide-jawed hinge angling

Answer: (B)

When you need to place tiny screws in tight spots, you want a tool with long, slender jaws that can reach into confined spaces and guide the screw precisely. Needle-nose pliers have those features: their tapered, pointed tips and longer reach let you position a small screw exactly where you need it without blocking your view or dropping it. They give you fine control to start threading and hold the screw steady as you guide it into place.

Nylon-jawed pliers are useful when you must avoid marring surfaces, but their broader jaws don’t reach as easily into narrow areas and don’t offer the same precision for tiny screws. The other names aren’t standard options for this task and wouldn’t provide the same combination of access and control.
