- 【Metal Striking Cap for Hammering】Equipped with a reinforced metal striking cap designed for hammering, allowing you to drive the tip into even the tightest gaps. The cap ensures full contact with the bar’s end, efficiently transferring hammer strikes directly into the tool for maximum impact.

- Angled Tips: The angled tip delivers better leverage for prying tasks than a straight tip. When separating two objects, the pry bar’s sharpened chisel end wedges into tight spaces and exerts greater prying force to separate them

- 【ANGLED TIP & SHARPENED CHISEL END】 The angled pry tip creates extra leverage while the sharpened chisel end wedges into narrow gaps, making these pry bars ideal for auto disassembly, panel separation, tile removal and nail pulling.
- 【STEEL STRIKING CAP FOR HAMMERING】 Each pry bar features a durable steel striking cap that withstands repeated hammer strikes, helping drive the chisel end into stubborn gaps for more efficient heavy-duty prying.
- 【FORGED STEEL FOR HEAVY-DUTY PERFORMANCE】 Made from industrial-grade forged iron steel, these pry bars offer solid strength and rigidity to resist twisting or flexing under demanding prying and lifting applications.
- 【COMFORTABLE NON-SLIP RUBBER GRIP】 The rubber handle with dense textured holes provides a comfortable, secure and non-slip grip for better control during automotive repair, construction, maintenance and other demanding tasks.
