Needle-nose pliers Knipex 08 26 185 Cutting length 1.3 cm

The Knipex 08 26 185 needle-nose combination pliers provide precise gripping and cutting in confined spaces. With a total length of 185 mm, a slim head and pointed jaws, these pliers are suited for tasks that require access to tight areas. The cutting edges are induction-hardened to approx. 61 HRC and the cutting length is 1.3 cm, offering durable performance for soft, medium-hard and hard wire.

Advantages

High leverage joint enables easy cutting with reduced force. Slim head design and anti-twist pointed jaws allow handy use in restricted areas. One gripping surface has a special convex contour for secure holding of flat parts, and a milled groove in the gripping area holds small parts such as nails, pins and bolts. Cutting edges are induction-hardened for long service life and stable tips.

Suitable for

• Precision gripping and bending in tight or confined spaces
• Cutting soft, medium-hard and hard wire up to the specified cutting length (1.3 cm)
• Holding and pulling small parts like nails, pins and bolts
• General electrical, mechanical and assembly work requiring narrow head access

How to use

Position the slim, pointed jaws around the workpiece and use the high-leverage joint to apply cutting or gripping force. For cutting, place the wire as close as possible to the cutting edges within the specified 1.3 cm cutting length. Use the convex contour on the gripping surface to secure flat parts and the milled groove to hold small items while pulling or extracting. Avoid using the pliers on live electrical circuits unless the tool is insulated for such use.

Recommendations

Regularly clean and lightly lubricate the joint to maintain smooth operation. Inspect cutting edges before use and avoid cutting materials harder than specified to preserve the induction-hardened edges. Store the pliers dry to prevent corrosion.
