Choosing the right Knipex tool
Single tool or case?
For clearly defined tasks a single matching tool is enough. To equip a workstation completely, a pre-equipped tool case or L-BOXX system is more economical and complete - for example for electrical or sanitary work.
Electrical and ESD applications
Insulated tools are mandatory when working on or near live parts. At electronics and ESD workstations, antistatic mats and covers complement the tools to protect sensitive components.
Selecting crimping pliers
For crimping pliers the contact type and cross-section range are decisive. Four-arbor crimping pliers for turned contacts are available with a digital display and positioning aid for repeatable crimp results.
