The Gator Slide Grip turns a full-size locking pliers (e.g., Vise Grip) into a pulling tool. The screw in the locking pliers is replaced with a puller shaft, which has a sliding hammer that moves back and forth striking the puller shaft. This pro- vides a high-impact force for pulling stubborn nails or pins. The device can be used to pull anything that a locking pliers could grip. Also, the hammer is large enough to be gripped by those with limited finger dexterity.
