FAQs
What is the total length of these pliers?
These pliers measure 160mm in total length.
Can these pliers cut hardened steel wire?
Yes, they are designed to cut soft, hard, and spring steel wires thanks to the 64 HRC induction-hardened edges.
Are these pliers VDE certified for electrical safety?
No, these are industrial pliers and are not insulated for use on live electrical circuits.
What material is used for the head construction?
They are constructed from high-quality C 70 tempered tool steel.
Do the jaws provide a secure grip?
Yes, the gripping surfaces are partially serrated to provide a secure hold on both flat and round cables.
Troubleshooting
Pliers feel stiff when opening or closing
Clean the pivot joint of any debris and apply a small amount of light machine oil, then cycle the pliers repeatedly.
Cutting edge not producing a clean cut
Ensure the wire being cut is within the rated capacity and placed deep into the cutting jaw near the pivot point for maximum leverage.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
These pliers are ready to use out of the box and do not require specific assembly. To ensure a long service life, wipe the jaws clean after exposure to moisture or debris to prevent surface oxidation. While the steel is tempered for high durability, the pliers are not insulated, so they should not be used on live high-voltage circuits. Store them in a dry tool bag or organizer to keep the cutting edges protected from dulling against other heavy steel tools. Periodically apply a drop of light machine oil to the pivot joint to ensure smooth operation.
