Insulated needle-nose pliers

The Knipex 98 62 02 is an 8 3/4 in insulated needle-nose plier rated for 1 000 V. Its fibreglass-reinforced construction and plastic-dipped handles suit electricians and maintenance technicians working on live or potentially live circuits up to the rated voltage.

Replacing basic combination pliers

This tool replaces non-insulated combination pliers when electrical isolation is required. The jump is worth it whenever the task demands a 1 000 V rated tool with a dedicated side cutter for hard and medium-hard wire up to 1/8 in and 3/32 in respectively.

3 in jaw length with cutting function

The 3 in jaw length and 1/8 in tip width give precise access in tight enclosures while the integrated cutter handles hard wire to 1/8 in and medium-hard wire to 3/32 in. Maximum jaw opening of 1 1/8 in limits use on larger fittings or thick cable bundles.
