Klein Tools D213-9NE High-Leverage Lineman's Pliers
The Klein Tools D213-9NE is a professional-grade 9-inch lineman's plier engineered for demanding electrical and telecommunications applications. Built with a high-leverage design, the rivet is positioned closer to the cutting edge to provide 46% greater cutting and gripping power compared to standard plier configurations. This ensures clean cuts and secure gripping of wire and cable while minimizing hand fatigue.
This model features a New England-style head, which is streamlined to offer easier access within dense enclosures, electrical boxes, and tight workspaces. The jaws utilize a sure-gripping, cross-hatched knurled pattern to maintain a firm hold on materials without slipping, and the tool is finished with dark blue plastic-dipped handles for improved comfort and control.
