Professional lineman's pliers

These Klein Tools pliers are built for electrical work and heavy-duty gripping tasks. The carbon steel construction provides durability for daily use on job sites. A New England nose profile suits standard lineman applications. The 8 11/16 inch overall length gives solid leverage for cutting and twisting.

Electricians needing dipped handles

The double-dipped plastic grips offer a secure hold but are not insulated for live circuits. Workers requiring high-leverage designs or spring-assisted return should consider other options. This model lacks integrated crimping dies or fish tape pulling features. The nonsparking rating is not certified for hazardous environments.

Carbon steel with tether capability

The pliers are forged from carbon steel for strength and include a tether attachment point for working at height. Jaw dimensions measure 1 7/16 inch length by 1 3/16 inch width with a 5/8 inch thickness. No insulation or high-leverage mechanism is present on this model.
