With the Knipex 26 17 200 snipe nose side cutting pliers, you grip, bend, and cut wires with precision during demanding electrical installations. Featuring VDE-tested dipped insulation, this tool ensures safe operation on live parts up to 1000V AC. The long, half-round jaws have elastic, distortion-tolerant precision tips that stay rigid even under heavy twisting, making it easy to navigate crowded panels and tight junction boxes. Thanks to the induction-hardened cutting edges, you can cleanly slice through medium-hard wire up to 3.2 mm and hard wire up to 2.2 mm without switching tools. The chrome-plated finish reliably shields the 200 mm tool against rust and workshop wear.
