High leverage combination pliers, chrome-plated, 35% less effort, cutting edges 63 HRC, 180 mm - Knipex 02 05 180

Anyone who grips, bends and cuts all day in electrical work and assembly feels every unnecessary movement. The high leverage combination pliers 02 05 180 works with optimised leverage and therefore needs about 35% less force than a conventional combination pliers, at 180 mm length and 236 g weight.

Benefits

• 35% less effort than with conventional combination pliers thanks to the optimised leverage, which spares the hand during many cuts in a row.
• Cutting edges additionally induction-hardened to approx. 63 HRC, so hard wire up to Ø 2.5 mm and piano wire up to Ø 2.0 mm are cut cleanly.
• Long cutting edges for thicker cables, multi-stranded copper cable up to 16.0 mm² is cut in one stroke.
• Gripping zones for flat and round material, so the same tool grips, bends and pulls.
• Precise, minimal light gap between the gripping jaws, which ensures the optimal function of the cutting edges.
• Comfort handles made of three ergonomic components with two KNIPEXtend interfaces for extensions.
• Chrome-plated pliers and head, so the surface stays presentable in damp surroundings.

Areas of use

Electrical installation, control cabinet building, assembly and maintenance in metal and plant construction, wherever thicker wire and cable are cut by hand.
