No, these are standard soft-grip pliers. They are not certified for live-voltage electrical work.
The cutting edges are made from the same high-quality chrome vanadium steel as the body, which is then induction hardened for durability.
While durable, they are primarily designed for copper and aluminum wire. Cutting hardened steel may cause premature damage to the cutting edges.
Draper tools are generally covered by a manufacturer's warranty; please check your specific purchase documentation or the Draper website for registration details.
The soft-grip handles are permanently molded to the tool for safety; they are not designed to be removable or replaceable.
Yes, these are classified as 'Expert Quality' tools and are manufactured to meet DIN standards for professional applications.
Apply a small amount of penetrating lubricant to the pivot point and work the jaws open and closed several times to distribute it.
Inspect for debris or hardened residue on the blades. If the edges are damaged, avoid using them on hardened steel wire, as this can chip the tempered edge.
Ensure the handle is pushed firmly onto the steel shaft; if excessive movement persists, check if the inner sleeve has been damaged by high-heat environments.
This set requires no setup and is ready for use immediately upon unboxing. To ensure the longevity of your tools, wipe them down with a clean, dry cloth after exposure to chemicals or moisture. Periodically apply a light machine oil to the pivot points to maintain smooth operation. Always store the tools in the provided blow-mould case to prevent accidental damage to the cutting edges or handles. While the tools are corrosion-resistant, they should not be left outdoors or in standing water for extended periods.
