Heavy-Duty Lineman's Pliers KNIPEX 09 05 0240 Size 240 mm
Maximum power, soft and comfortable grip, and ready for cutting, twisting, and pulling American style! KNIPEX 09 05 0240 Heavy-Duty Lineman's Pliers, size 240 mm (9.5 inches), top-tier pliers designed to meet the needs of linemen, power electricians, and industrial structural construction workers who regularly need to exert force to cut and grip thick materials. This model features a "Lineman's Pliers" design with the pivot point moved closer to the cutting edges, providing enormous leverage that helps "save up to 50% cutting effort" compared to standard combination pliers. The extra-large gripping jaws with a cross-hatched knurled gripping zone deliver high holding power, allowing you to pull nails, pull cables, or firmly twist thick copper wires without slipping. Combined with two-component handles (Multi-Component Grips) blending hard and soft plastics, they are soft and comfortable in hand, helping distribute massive squeezing force and effectively reducing hand fatigue. Forged from special high-grade chrome vanadium steel, oil-hardened, and with induction-hardened cutting edges to an exceptional hardness of 64 HRC, capable of cutting anything from cables to extra-hard piano wire.
Features
Lineman 50% High Leverage: The high-leverage joint design places the pivot closer to the cutting edges, reducing required manual effort by half compared to conventional pliers.
Two-Tone Multi-Component Grips: Firm grip that won't slip from your hand; absorbs pressure and helps protect hands during continuous work.
Extra-Hard 64 HRC Cutting Edges: Induction-hardened to cut medium-hard wire, hard wire, and piano wire cleanly without chipping.
Cross-Hatched Serrated Jaws: Cross-pattern serrations maximize gripping power on workpieces, ideal for twisting wires or pulling thick materials.
Cable Pulling and Crimping Zone: Features an underneath-the-joint space for pulling cable and conveniently crimping standard terminal lugs/ferrules.
Premium Chrome Vanadium Steel: Meticulously drop-forged to withstand heavy torque and sudden shocks on demanding job sites.
