KNIPEX 02 06 180 Heavy Duty Combination Pliers 180 mm
Combining two ultimate functions into one! KNIPEX 02 06 180 Heavy-Duty VDE 1000V Insulated Combination Pliers (High Leverage VDE Combination Pliers) 180 mm is a premium German tool blending "high safety VDE insulation" with "high leverage innovation." It enables professional electricians to grip, cut, or bend wire with maximum efficiency and minimal effort. The highlight of this model is its eccentric pivot joint design (High Leverage), providing exceptional transmission of force that requires "35% less effort" compared to conventional combination pliers. The thick two-color insulated handles are tested and certified to VDE standards (IEC 60900) for protection up to 1,000 V. Forged from high-grade special tool steel and oil-hardened, the cutting edges are induction hardened to 63 HRC, cleanly, precisely, and safely cutting spring wire, piano wire, and large copper/aluminum cables.
