Stanley 55-117 10 in. Precision Molding Bar

The Stanley 55-117 10 in. Precision Molding Bar is made for removing trim, molding and baseboard with minimal damage to the wall or the trim itself. It is forged from high-carbon spring steel and heat treated, with ultra-thin polished blades and beveled claws that slip into tight gaps for mar-free removal. A flat striking face lets you tap the bar into position with a hammer before prying, making it well suited to renovation work where trim will be reinstalled. The compact 10 in. length makes it easy to control in tight spots around door and window casings, baseboards and cabinet trim. The flat striking face lets you drive the thin blade behind the trim with a hammer, then pry gently along the length of the piece to lift it without splitting or denting it.

Stanley 55-117 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Stanley 55-117 molding bar pull baseboard off without cracking it if I plan to reinstall the same trim?
That is what the 55-117 is built for. The blades are ultra-thin and polished with beveled claws, so they slide into the gap behind trim rather than crushing the edge. Tap the blade in with a hammer on the flat striking face, then pry a little at a time along the run instead of levering hard at one point. Baseboard, casing, crown, shoe molding, chair rail and wainscot cap all come off this way for reuse.
2) Is a 10 inch molding bar long enough, or should I use a longer flat bar?
The 55-117 is 10 in. (254 mm), which is short on purpose. It gives you control in tight spots around door and window casings, baseboards and cabinet trim, where a long bar would flex the trim or dent the wall. For heavy demo work, framing teardown, or pulling nailed-down subfloor where you want leverage and do not care about the material, a longer wrecking or flat bar is the better tool. Many trim crews carry both.
3) Can you hit the Stanley 55-117 with a hammer?
Yes. It has a flat striking face made for exactly that, so you can drive the thin blade behind trim before you start prying. The bar is forged from high-carbon spring steel and heat treated, which is what lets the thin blade take hammer blows and spring back instead of taking a set.
4) What pry bar should a property manager keep for turnovers and paint prep?
For unit turns, the work is usually pulling casing and base so it can go back on after paint or flooring. The Stanley 55-117 molding bar handles that: 10 in. long, thin polished blades, beveled claws that lift trim without marring the wall face. It is the trim-removal tool, not a demo tool, so pair it with a heavier bar if your crews also do tear-out.
5) Does the 55-117 come in other sizes, and what part number do I order?
Order it by Stanley model 55-117. Stanley's pry bar line runs from 10 in. up to 36 in.; the 55-117 is the 10 in. precision molding bar in that range. If you need reach and leverage rather than finesse, step up to one of the longer bars in the line.
