09 12 240 T BKA, 9 1/2-Inch High-Leverage New England-Style Lineman's Pliers
The U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics reports that being struck by a falling object is the third major cause of workplace fatalities and that many of these accidents are completely preventable. A one-pound tool falling from 500 feet strikes the ground traveling at about 140 mph. According to OSHA standards, workers are currently required to be anchored when they are four feet or higher above the ground.
Knipex Tethered Tools provide effective protection against accidents caused by falling tools. These tools can be secured to be prevented from falling down during use with cherry pickers, scaffolding, ladders, and also by industrial climbers with wire ropes and high altitude rescue workers. The tether attachment mount point is welded securely to the multi-component comfort grip handle and the flat mounting point does not get in the way during normal work on the ground.
The rivet size has been reduced and moved closer to the jaws to create a ultra-high leverage design.
At A Glance:
- Cutting capacity: Up to 3/16-inch nail and wire pin; 1/8-inch wire rope strand and steel wire
- Length: 9-1/2 inches
- Handles: Comfort Grip with tether point
Quality in Every Detail
Knipex Tools redesigned Lineman’s Pliers are heavy-duty for the most demanding jobs. The rivet has been reduced in size and moved closer to the jaws to create an ultra-high leverage design for 25% easier cutting power. The cutting edges are induction hardened with a cutting edge hardness of approximately 64 HRC for long life and easy cutting of soft, hard and ACSR wire. Additionally, they feature a serrated cross-hatched knurled gripping zone in the jaws for gripping and pulling (such as for fencing applications). There is an additional gripping zone below the joint for strong gripping of wires and pulling nails. Select models also include a universal terminal crimper and a fish tape puller on the backside. Our Lineman's Pliers are forged from vanadium electric steel and are available in dipped, multi-component grip and 1000V insulated handles.
