Abstract
A pair of pliers are provided for fastening a split annular hose clamp whose opposite ends are provided with ratchet teeth adapted for interlocking engagement. The pair of pliers has a pair of primary jaw members used in fastening the hose clamp and a pair of secondary jaw members used for removing the hose clamp by applying force in opposed lateral directions to the interlocked members. The primary jaw members and the secondary jaw members are located on the same side of the pivot stud remote from the plier's handles.
