You've probably worked this out yourself, but for putting in PMR pipework I use a small (around 5" I think they are) Channellock pair of water pump pliers
and some THICK leather (has to be THICK or the Channellock teeth will come through) and it grips well and won't damage the brass.

This is useful, thank you.  Yeah, I’ve scored the pipework a few times using vice grips.
