Klein Tools D2000-28 8-Inch High-Leverage Diagonal-Cutting Pliers – Made in USA

Premium performance for demanding jobs

Meet Klein Tools D2000-28, an 8-inch diagonal-cutting plier crafted for professional use. Its high-leverage design places the rivet closer to the cutting edge, unlocking approximately 36% more cutting power than standard diagonal cutters. This enhancement can make it easier to tackle tough materials with confidence and precision, even in cramped workspaces.

The 2000 Series is built to handle everyday challenges on the job site, from trimming conductors to snipping stubborn fasteners. The combination of a close-cutting profile and durable construction means you may finish tasks faster and with fewer tool changes, while maintaining control under pressure.

What you can do with these pliers

• Cut ACSR, screws, nails, and most hardened wire with reliable aggression.
• Close cuts in tight spaces thanks to short jaws and beveled cutting edges.
• Experience smooth action and consistent performance courtesy of a hot-riveted joint.

Built to last, designed for comfort

Induction-hardened cutting knives extend tool life, while US-made tool steel underpins durability. Exclusive handle tempering helps absorb the snap when cutting wire, reducing user fatigue. The plastic-dipped handles offer a comfortable grip and easy identification on a crowded bench.

• Made in the USA with high-quality, domestically sourced materials.
• Beveled edges enable precise, close cutting in challenging angles.
• Hot-riveted joint maintains alignment and delivers steady action over time.
