Knipex 11 In 45 Degree Needle Nose Plier
This Knipex needle nose plier measures 11 inches overall and features a 45 degree jaw bend for angled access. The jaws are made from tool steel with serrated gripping surfaces and a 3 inch jaw length. It opens to a maximum of 2-1/8 inches and has red dipped handles.
Serrated Jaws And 45 Degree Bend For Gripping
The serrated gripping surface holds round or flat stock securely without a side cutter or wire stripper function. A solid joint keeps the 3/4 inch wide jaws aligned while the 1/8 inch tip width reaches into tight spaces. The 45 degree bend allows work around obstructions where straight jaws cannot reach.
Suited For Mechanics Needing Angled Reach
Technicians who need an 11 inch reach with a 45 degree jaw angle will find this plier fits the task. It lacks a spring return, tether point, cutting edges, crimping or stripping features, so users requiring those functions should select a different model. The uninsulated, non-ESD safe handles also rule out live electrical work.

Questions about this item
Will the serrated gripping surface on the 28 81 280 SBA plier wear down and need replacement?
The serrated jaws are machined from tool steel and cannot be replaced separately; when the teeth dull the entire plier must be retired.
What is the first limit reached when the 11 inch plier is used continuously on heavy wire?
The maximum jaw opening of 2-1/8 inches restricts the thickest material that can be gripped before the handles bottom out.
How much heat builds up in the dipped red handles during all-day use?
The dipped handles do not conduct heat from the tool steel jaws, so they remain near ambient temperature even after extended work.
