Klein Tools D248-8 Pliers - High-Leverage Diagonal-Cutting Pliers with Angled Head, 8-Inch, Made in USA

Klein Tools D248-8 Pliers — 8-Inch High-Leverage Diagonal-Cutting Pliers with Angled Head

The Klein Tools D248-8 diagonal-cutting pliers are built for frequent, professional use. With a high-leverage design that places the rivet closer to the cutting edge, these pliers offer notably more cutting power per squeeze when handling non-ferrous wire and soft metal. The result is smoother action and less hand strain, helping you maintain control across tasks that demand precision and endurance throughout the day.

The angled head makes working in confined spaces easier, allowing comfortable access to wires along panels or inside electrical enclosures without bending wrists awkwardly or scraping surfaces. A hot-riveted joint contributes to steady, fluid operation, while induction-hardened cutting knives are chosen for long life under demanding conditions. This model is made in the USA from high-quality tool steel, reflecting Klein Tools' long-standing emphasis on durability and performance.
