Knipex 26 26 VDE Insulated Bent Nose Side Cutting Pliers 200mm

About this tool

The Knipex 26 26 VDE Insulated Bent Nose Side Cutting Pliers are precision hand tools designed for electrical work and detailed wire manipulation in confined spaces. These German-engineered pliers feature 40° angled jaws that provide excellent access to awkward work areas whilst maintaining clear visibility of the workpiece. Built with elastic precision tips, these pliers remain dimensionally stable even when subjected to twisting forces during use. The half-round, long, tapered jaws incorporate cutting edges suitable for soft, medium-hard and hard wire, with additional induction hardening achieving approximately 61 HRC cutting edge hardness. This dual-purpose design allows electricians and electrical contractors to grip, manipulate and cut wire using a single tool. The VDE testing certification ensures these pliers meet stringent electrical safety standards for live working, making them essential for professional electricians working on electrical installations and maintenance. The 73mm jaw length and 3mm tip width provide the precision required for terminal work, control panel wiring and other detailed electrical applications where standard pliers would be too bulky. Features and Benefits: • Elastic precision tips remain dimensionally stable even when twisted • 40° angled jaws for improved access in confined spaces • Induction-hardened cutting edges (61 HRC) for extended service life • VDE tested for safe use on live electrical work • Half-round tap
