KNIPEX 9.5-Inch Ultra-High Leverage Lineman's Pliers

KNIPEX Tools has completely redesigned their Lineman's Pliers series to enhance the cutting experience, saving users time and energy. The rivet has been reduced in size and moved closer to the jaws, creating an ultra-high leverage design that offers 25% easier cutting power. Additionally, the recess on the back now has an oval-shaped design, which works better on thicker, round or oval-shaped cables.

The new lineman's design not only makes the product more competitive in the market but is set to become the new standard. Equipped with carded packaging, the Knipex New England-style lineman's pliers feature a high-leverage design that requires 40 percent less effort compared to conventional combination pliers. The pliers offer a cable puller in the joint gap and a universal mandrel crimping point below the joint.

The cross-hatched serrated gripping zone provides firm gripping and pulling, suitable for various applications, such as fencing. Other features include a gripping zone below the joint for powerful leverage, long cutting edges for cutting flat cables, a fish tape puller in the joint gap, and a crimping area below the joint. The cutting edges are induction hardened, with a cutting edge hardness of approximately 64 HRC, and the handles are coated with non-slip plastic.

Knipex, the world's leading brand in pliers, is committed to the performance, service life, and ergonomics of its tools to meet the high expectations of professional users. The company's focus on the small details, such as angles, sharpness, hardness, toughness of the cutting edges, precision, and smooth movement of the joint, as well as the handle design and finish, sets them apart.

Headquartered in Wuppertal, Germany, Knipex is an independently-owned family enterprise steeped in tradition and specializing in the manufacturing of high-quality pliers. The company's journey began in 1882 when C. Gustav Putsch set up his own forge shop in Cronenberg, and it is now run by the fourth generation of that family.

The steel Knipex uses is precisely hardened with a maximum of 0.8 percent carbon and defined parts of chromium and vanadium, guaranteeing optimum cutting performance and service life, despite the special production requirements and higher costs. This commitment to quality is also evident in the rivet of the high-leverage diagonal cutter, which is forged straight onto the pliers to withstand the high stress it faces.

In summary, KNIPEX Tools' redesigned Lineman's Pliers series features enhanced cutting power, improved cable handling, and a focus on ergonomics and durability, making it a top choice for professional users.
