ERGO Insulated Side Cutting Plier is made of high performance alloy steel with black oxidized and anti-corrosion treated finish for work on live equipment up to 1000 volts. The cutting radius progresses along the edge in order to cut hard material like piano wire close to the joint and soft materials like copper and plastic insulated wire at the tip. Screw joint that provides excellent running and accurate alignment of the cutting edges. Reduced distance from the joint to the centre of the cutting edges give increased leverage and cutting capacity. Round shaped jaws give improved accessibility in confined spaces.
