Klein Tools D2038N Long-Nose Side Cut Plier

8-Inch Long-Nose Side-Cut Pliers

The Klein Tools D2038N is an 8-inch long-nose plier with integrated side-cutting knives and a wire-stripping function. It is built for electricians and technicians who need reach into tight enclosures and the ability to cut and strip conductors with one tool. The slim head profile allows access to crowded terminal blocks and junction boxes. This plier suits professionals who value a single multi-function hand tool for daily wiring tasks.

Induction-Hardened Knives Limit Wear

The cutting knives are induction hardened to extend service life when severing copper and aluminium wire. The hardening process concentrates durability at the edge, so the plier retains cutting performance longer than untreated jaws. Users should note that the tool is not rated for hardened steel wire, bolts or nails; cutting such materials will damage the knives. The stripping function is sized for common solid and stranded household conductors only.

Steel Construction With Extended Handles

The body is forged from steel and finished with extended handles that provide additional leverage during cutting and bending. The slim head and long nose allow precise tip placement in confined spaces without obstructing adjacent components. The handle length supports two-handed operation when extra force is required, while the carded packaging protects the tool during storage. California Proposition 65 warnings apply to this product.
