Long Nose Pliers With Cutter (2611200), 8

Made in Wuppertal-Cronenberg, Germany, Knipex pliers are distinguished by more than just quality, innovation, and performance. Sustainable actions and value-guided orientation are also important cornerstones of the brand. Knipex's long nose pliers (model 26 11 200) feature a unique design that allows them to easily reach confined spaces. The half-round, tapered jaws are longer and narrower than standard pliers, enabling access where others cannot. These snipe nose side cutters boast elastic precision tips that are stronger and more flexible, withstanding twisting and bending without breaking.

The serrated gripping surface provides a secure hold with minimal slipping, while the integrated side cutter can handle soft, medium, and hard wire. The cutting edges are induction hardened to approximately 61 HRC, capable of cutting medium-hard wire up to 3.2mm and hard wire up to 2.2mm in diameter. A non-slip, plastic-coated grip completes the design.

Knipex's commitment to quality is evident in the meticulous attention to detail. The brand's steel is precisely hardened, containing a maximum of 0.8% carbon along with defined amounts of chromium and vanadium. This specialized process ensures optimal cutting performance and extended service life, even though it requires additional effort and cost. The high-leverage diagonal cutter's rivet is forged directly onto the pliers, providing extra reinforcement to withstand heavy use.

Beyond the major components, Knipex scrutinizes the smallest details - the angles, sharpness, hardness, and toughness of the cutting edges; the precision and smooth movement of the joint; the handle design and finish. This relentless review, research, and testing process drives continuous improvement of Knipex's pliers.

Headquartered in Wuppertal and founded in 1882 by C. Gustav Putsch, Knipex remains an independently owned, family-run enterprise now in its fourth generation. As the world's leading brand in pliers, the company is focused on delivering tools that meet the high expectations of professional users in terms of performance, service life, and ergonomics.

Knipex's Long Nose Pliers with Cutter exemplify the brand's engineering excellence. The resilient precision tips, half-round jaws, and serrated gripping surfaces work in harmony to provide a secure, versatile grip, even in confined spaces. Induction-hardened cutting edges ensure reliable cutting of medium and hard wire. Knipex's unwavering commitment to quality, innovation, and user-centric design has solidified its reputation as the number one choice of tradesmen worldwide.
