Diagonal pliers Knipex 26 11 200

The Knipex 26 11 200 diagonal pliers combine precise cutting edges with elastic, distortion-tolerant tips and long, half-round pointed jaws. Made from vanadium electric steel that is forged and oil-hardened, these diagonal pliers are designed for precision cutting and gripping tasks where durable cutting performance and dimensional stability of the tips are required.

Advantages

Elastic precision tips remain dimensionally stable even when twisted, allowing accurate access in confined spaces. The long, half-round pointed jaws provide good view and access to small parts, while the cutting edges (approx. 61 HRC) are suitable for soft, medium-hard and hard wire. The forged, oil-hardened vanadium steel construction ensures longevity and reliable performance under professional use.

Suitable for

• Precision cutting of soft, medium-hard and hard wire
• Cutting and gripping in confined or hard-to-reach areas
• Electronics, electrical installation and detailed mechanical work

How to use

Position the pliers so the material to be cut is close to the cutting edges near the joint for best leverage and minimal strain. Use the pointed half-round jaws to access narrow or recessed areas and to grip small components. Apply steady pressure when cutting wire; for very hard materials use slight additional force while keeping the pliers perpendicular to the cut to avoid slipping. After use, clean any debris from the cutting edges and store the pliers dry to maintain performance.

Recommendations

Use these diagonal pliers for metal wire up to the capacity recommended by the manufacturer; avoid cutting hardened steel beyond the tool's rating. Regularly check cutting edges for wear and maintain lubrication on the joint for smooth operation.
