Knipex 03 06 VDE Insulated Tethered Combination Pliers

The Knipex 03 06 VDE Insulated Tethered Combination Pliers are professional-grade pliers designed for electrical work and versatile gripping applications. These VDE-tested pliers combine secure gripping zones for both flat and round materials with powerful cutting capabilities, making them ideal for electricians and contractors working in live electrical environments.

Built with long cutting edges specifically designed for thicker cables, these combination pliers feature induction-hardened cutting edges with a hardness of approximately 60 HRC for exceptional durability and cutting performance. The pliers can handle medium hard wire up to 3.4mm diameter, hard wire up to 2.2mm diameter, and multi-stranded copper cable up to 12mm diameter or 16mm².

A key safety feature is the integrated tether attachment point moulded into the insulated handles, providing drop protection when working at height. This makes them particularly suitable for electricians and maintenance engineers working on access equipment, scaffolding, or elevated installations where dropped tools pose a serious hazard. The VDE testing certification ensures safe operation on live electrical systems up to 1000V AC.
