Heavy Duty Combination Pliers KNIPEX 02 05 180 Size 180 mm
Maximize efficiency and safety on the job with KNIPEX Heavy Duty Combination Pliers Model 02 05 180 (High Leverage Combination Pliers with Tether Attachment Point), size 180 mm. A premium-grade tool from Germany designed to handle cutting and gripping tasks that require high clamping force. Meets modern safety standards with an integrated "Tether Attachment Point" securely forged into the handle, allowing connection to a safety lanyard (tethering lanyard) to prevent tool drop accidents while working at heights. The joint design utilizes high-leverage eccentric pivot technology for optimal force transmission, requiring "up to 35% less effort" compared to conventional combination pliers. Forged from high-grade special tool steel and meticulously oil-hardened, its induction-hardened cutting edges reach approximately 63 HRC to cut piano wire, spring wire, and cables with razor-sharp precision. The multi-component grips combine hard and soft plastics for a firm, non-slip grip that absorbs high pressure effectively.
