KNIPEX Round nose pliers with cutting edge black atramentized | 40° | short
Forged from vanadium electric steel, the 40° angled precision tips of these needle nose pliers from KNIPEX are torsion-tolerant thanks to their elasticity. This makes it easy for the user to apply the optimum amount of manual force. Larger workpieces can be held firmly, while smaller ones can be gripped gently and with good control. The effort required for cutting is low, as the manual force is efficiently transferred to the workpiece thanks to the position of the cutting edges close to the joint. Their cutting edges are shaped to produce a biting cut. In addition, the cutting edges are induction-hardened to approx. 61 HRC. This gives the pliers very good values when cutting cables, soft, medium-hard and even hard wire (up to 3.2 mm diameter).
Atramented surface
Atramentized or phosphated surfaces are widely used on KNIPEX pliers and are very popular with users. This surface treatment consists of a dark phosphate coating. The matt surface reduces the reflection of light, which can be particularly advantageous when working on bright or reflective surfaces. The atreatment gives the pliers an attractive appearance, a good grip, but also weaker corrosion protection (compared to chrome-plated surfaces). Atramentized pliers should be well oiled at all times to improve protection against rust.
