Hans,
You would have to try them to decide for yourself. You can use them in a "rotary" movement - I haven't found the spring to retard that movement. I have had all manner of pliers, and most would allow the material to slip occasionally. Not the case so far with these.
As with all tools, it is a personal thing, but best determined with use............
The long one below is what I was most recently using. Has two "swivels" which make it better than the teardrop for applying material. for me, anyway. It allows wrapping without your hand going over the fly.
