Crescent PS20509C Linesman Pliers 9 Inch Side Cutting

Product Description

The CRESCENT PS20509C is a 9-inch overall length linesman plier designed for cutting, gripping, and twisting wire in electrical work. The tool features a serrated jaw with a round nose head and a 1-inch jaw width, giving it a strong grip on conductors and fasteners. The bi-material cushion grip handles in black and red reduce hand fatigue during repetitive tasks. Built from steel, this plier is suited for licensed electricians and experienced trades workers who need a reliable, full-size combination plier on the job.

This plier is a standard choice for residential and commercial electrical installations, service work, and panel work. The 9-inch OAL puts it in the full-size category, appropriate for pulling wire, twisting conductors, and cutting through solid or stranded wire at the side-cutting blades. The ergonomic grip handles are designed to reduce strain during extended use. The tool is not insulated and is not tether capable, making it best suited for standard ground-level electrical tasks rather than elevated or live-line applications.

Installation Notes

Linesman pliers are installed and used by licensed electricians working under NEC guidelines. Always de-energize circuits and verify with a meter before working on any conductors. These pliers are not rated for insulated or live-line use — do not use on energized conductors. Inspect the handles and cutting edges before each use and replace the tool if the handles are cracked or the blades are damaged.
