Someone's already tooled up hemostats in polypropylene. The joint comprising four living hinges instead of a pin/clevis is pretty clever. They're strong enough to close a blood vessel or a thin plastic tube, once or twice, but you wouldn't want to work hard metal wire with them.
Some of the poly- ether- other- whatever- imide resins are moldable in thick sections and fairly strong. You've probably seen the stuff it rings like aluminum when you drop a part on the table.
Most of the resins that are strong/stiff enough to almost do what you want tend to be (shockingly) expensive, hard to mold, and brittle.
No plastic will substitute for metal, especially steel, in the same geometry.
You have to decide what, exactly, you want to do, and what non metallic behaviors you can tolerate, and how much space you've got to work with, and seek a specific compromise for each available material.
