The Klein Tools 8-Inch High-Leverage Diagonal Cutting Pliers are engineered for non-ferrous wire and soft metal cutting, delivering 36% greater cutting power than conventional plier designs thanks to a rivet positioned closer to the cutting edge. The angled head makes close-quarter cutting practical in confined spaces — behind panels, in junction boxes, and on tight conduit runs. Induction-hardened cutting knives and a hot-riveted joint ensure lasting edge retention and wobble-free action through years of daily use.
