How to Use Polyvance's 6146 Bumper Pliers Kit

The rectangular “slot tabs” and recessed holes often found on bumper covers are designed to clip into brackets on the quarter panels and hold the bumper tightly in place. The tabs are easily torn in a collision, and they are so weak that they often break just when removing the bumper from the car.

Polyvance’s 6146 Bumper Pliers Kit makes it easier to repair these tabs and recreate their original dimensions. The kit includes four customized pliers and seven forming dies. The pliers and dies are numbered for easy matching. There are six dies of different widths that match most rectangular slot tabs in use today, as well as one three-sixteenths inch die to create the round recesses found on many bumpers. The matching pliers flatten out the melted welding rod, creating a quick and strong repair.

Our current Bumper Pliers Kit has numbered dies with matching numbered pliers. This replaces our old Bumper Pliers Kit which had color coded pliers and dies. The current set comes in a very professional gold color.
