loc-line assembly aids

[Europhyllia]

Is there such a thing as loc-line pliers?
Some of these components are nearly impossible to connect. And take apart.
Surely there's got to be something that makes this more do-able?

Visegrips and needlenose pliers. That's what I use.

They do have loc-line pliers! $15 ... I think I'll continue to use my husband for now until we get one he can't squash together by hand...

Yep they're can be PITA sometimes,but so they won't fall apart on you when pressure applied. Wipe some cooking oil on it before push them together.

Got a link for those pliers? Sounds like something we should have in the maast equipment bank.

I run a machine shop and would not use loc-line without the pliers

I have some lockline 3/4" pliers if needed. They don't work great on all fitting, but are better then nothing.
