Product Description

The CRESCENT Z20508-06 is a heavy-duty lineman pliers built for electricians and linemen working with wire cutting, gripping, and twisting tasks in the field or on the job site. Constructed from alloy steel with a polished finish, this tool features a 0.75-inch knife-to-knife cutting edge capable of cutting wire up to AWG 6. The professional dipped rawhide handle provides a secure grip during demanding work.
