Temporally sold out; we are manufacturing more to our specifications, and don't expect these to be available until Fall 2025. Please bookmark this page and check here again.

The best bat banding pliers available. Nothing to wear out or break. Made from Surgical Grade Stainless Steel type 410 to be rust free. Bat bands require a unique tool that accommodates the lip at the ends of the band, evenly crimps the circular space around the band, and leaves a specific gap to accommodate the wing membrane. Therefore, tolerances and measurements must be precise. 

These pliers hold an opened band securely and allow the bander to place and crimp the band with minimal effort while minimizing the potential of wing membrane damage caused by an over-crimped band. 

Stop crimping bands with fingers alone; this practice can be inconsistent and at worst could injure the bat unnecessarily over time. These pliers will not over-crimp, and crimp perfectly every time with no fuss or muss. Used nationwide by state and federal agency biologists and at Bat Survey Solutions/Bat Conservation and Management  workshops. Easy to WNS decon.

Two sizes available for Porzana 2.4mm or larger Porzana 2.9mm bands; one of each should be in your kit!

 

Specifications when closed:

2.4mm model: 3.2mm diameter hole, 0.9144mm slot - sorry we are sold out of this size, we do not know when they will be available again

2.9mm model: 4mm diameter hole, 0.9144mm slot- sorry we are sold out of this size, we do not know when they will be available again
