Long nose pliers chrome-plated, VDE insulated up to 1000 V, 160 mm - Knipex 30 16 160

On live installations the gripping tool has to be tested as well. The 30 16 160 long nose pliers have insulated multi-component sleeves with VDE approval to IEC 60900 plus 46.5 mm jaws that still reach the workpiece behind terminal strips and rows of terminals.

Benefits
