Knipex 09 02 Tethered Lineman Pliers

The Knipex 09 02 240 T BK Lineman's Pliers are professional-grade cutting pliers designed for electricians and contractors working at height, featuring an integrated tether attachment point for fall protection systems. These lineman pliers deliver exceptional cutting performance with 50% less effort required compared to conventional combination pliers, thanks to their optimised high transmission ratio design.

Built for heavy-duty applications, these pliers feature a solid construction capable of withstanding the most demanding working conditions. The cutting edges are additionally induction-hardened to approximately 64 HRC, providing reliable performance when cutting both soft and hard wire up to 4.6mm and 3mm diameter respectively. The ergonomically optimised handle shape ensures firm contact and reduces operator fatigue during extended use.

The jaws incorporate a particularly effective cross-hatched knurled gripping zone for strong gripping and pulling tasks, whilst an additional gripping zone below the joint delivers powerful leverage for pressing operations. The integrated tether attachment point makes these pliers ideal for working at height applications where tool drop protection is essential, meeting modern site safety requirements for work in elevated positions or areas with public access below.
