hog ring tool?

[dryriesling]

I need to replace some rusted out hog rings on my Load Rite trailer. These are the rings that secure the rollers. Anyone have a suggestion for what tool to use to close the replacement hog rings? None of my pliers seems big enough to get the job done....

Probably a special tool, but I'd consider a large pair of Channelocks.

Channelocks work fine

Thanks for the help. I just picked up a pair of 12" channelocks, and it looks like they will do the trick.

Hog ring pliers. 10-15 bucks at ACE. I have had mine for years, works great still.
