KNIPEX VDE Electrician Pliers LOCK | 200mm

Description

The six in one, multifunctional tool for electricians.

The Knipex VDE Electrician Pliers LOCK 1396200SB is suitable for cutting cable, wire stripping, deburring, bending, gripping and crimping.

These universal pliers streamline your workflow by eliminating the need to constantly switch tools. With multiple functions at your disposal, one tool is all you need for the most critical and recurring tasks in electrical installation. The opening spring provides valuable support during repetitive work steps, while the integrated pawl cleverly holds the cutting edges closed, allowing you to grip without opening the pliers.

Moreover, the smooth gripping surfaces at the tip of the pliers enable you to hold and position single conductors without causing damage. The profiled gripping surfaces and pipe grip also allow for secure handling of flat and round materials. The induction-hardened precision cutting edges produce clean cuts on Cu and Al cables up to Ø 15 mm.

Additionally, the insulated, VDE-tested multi-component grips ensure comfortable and safe use, even on live parts with proper training. The chrome-plated surface offers excellent rust protection, further enhancing the tool’s durability. By consolidating multiple functions into one tool, these electrical installation pliers save time, space, and weight – fitting easily into any tool bag at 200 mm long and weighing just 280g.
