- When the handle is squeezed, the jaws come together to lift the object and when the handle is released, the jaws open to put down the object.

What is the advantage of V-jaws in these laboratory tongs and forceps?
- V-jaws are typically used on laboratory tongs or forceps to hold round or cylindrical objects, such as flasks, test tubes, vials, or pipettes.
- They provide a stable and secure grip without causing damage to the object.
