Introduction – Pliers
Klein Quality
All Klein pliers are made of the finest U.S. steel alloy. They are
forged, precision machined, hardened, and carefully tempered for
maximum strength, Klein pliers provide exceptional performance
and durability.
All pliers mating surfaces and dimensions are precision machined
for faultless performance. Pliers halves are precision machined
and hot riveted for uniformly smooth opening and closing action.
Cutting knives are manufactured for long-lasting edges and per-
fect alignment.
The cutting knives on all Klein pliers are designed to meet
according to the way each is used. Side-cutting and long-nose
Using Pliers
A professional knows all the rules about using pliers, but a
review of the following points may help you recall any you may
have forgotten.
1. Never use pliers to do another tool’s job. Pliers should
not be used as a hammer or pry tool or a wrench. Using pliers
instead of the proper tools risks damaging the work, damaging
yourself, and losing time.
2. Never push pliers beyond their capacity. Bending stiff wire
with light pliers or the tip of needle-nose pliers can spring them
or break them. Use a stronger, blunt nose pliers. When you need
greater leverage, use pliers with greater leverage. Don’t extend
the length of the pliers handles. Bolts should be cut with a bolt
cutter, and large cable with a cable cutter.
3. Never expose pliers to excessive heat. Direct flame on
metal can ruin the tool. Cutting pliers are especially vulnerable to
high, direct heat.
4. Never cut hardened wire with ordinary pliers. Pliers should
not be used for cutting hardened wire unless they are specifically
recommended for this use.
5. Never rock pliers from side to side when cutting wire…
and never bend the wire back and forth against the cutting
Pliers Catalog Number Prefixes/Suffixes
“D” (Prefix) – Indicates the pliers have plastic-dipped handles.
Plastic-dipped handles are for comfort, NOT for protection against
electrical shock.
“HD” (Prefix) – Indicates the pliers have heavy-duty plastic-dipped
handles. Heavy-duty plastic-dipped handles provide an extra level
of user comfort and are NOT for protection against
electrical shock.
Knife-edge descriptions refer to the angle of the outside cutting edges of the knives when fully closed.

WARNING:
Always wear approved eye protection.
knives. Either practice can dull or nick the cutting edges. Cut
wire at a right angle only. If it won’t cut readily, the knives may
need sharpening. Or you may need pliers with greater leverage.
6. Never cut any wire or metal unless your eyes are
protected. Goggles or other protective devices are an absolute
must. Don't take shortcuts. Operate safely...the professional way.
7. Never cut any wire or metal unless your fellow workers’
eyes are also protected. The wire that doesn’t get you may get
someone else. Think about the “other guy” as well as yourself.
8. Never depend on plastic-dipped handles to
insulate you from electricity. Plastic-dipped handles are
intended for comfort and a firmer grip only. They are not intended
for protection against electric shock. Never use any pliers or
cutting tools on live electrical circuits. Only use insulated tools
that are marked with the official inter national 1000-volt rating
symbol if there is any chance that the tool will make contact with
an energized source.
9. Always wear approved eye protection such as protective
goggles or a face mask.
pliers with side cutters have knives that meet at the hinge first
and then meet at least one-half of the knife length. Diagonal-
cutting pliers meet at the tip first and then meet at least one-half
of the knife length.
These precise knife-closing designs increase knife life and
facilitate resharpening.
Klein pliers are individually adjusted to meet performance
standards far exceeding application requirements – ensuring
that nothing less than outstanding quality ever carries the
Klein name.
Semi-Flush Cutting Edges
Closely cuts medium wire. Found on
select Klein diagonal cutting pliers.
“J” (Prefix) – Indicates the pliers have Journeyman™ handles.
State-of-the-art dual material molding that allows for a softer,
more comfortable grip on the outer surface and a harder, more
durable grip on the inner surface and handle ends.
“C” (Suffix) – Indicates the pliers have a coil spring in the handles
for self-opening action.
handles are NOT intended for protection against electrical shock.
WARNING:
NOT insulated. Plastic-dipped or slip-on plastic
