Gearwrench 82179-06 Diagonal Cutting Pliers Pitbull

Product Description

The GEARWRENCH 82179-06 is a diagonal cutting pliers from the Pitbull line, engineered for industrial and automotive technicians who demand consistent cutting performance over long service life. Forged from alloy steel and precision machined, this plier delivers up to 35 percent greater cutting power compared to standard designs, thanks to its high-leverage joint construction. The polished finish resists corrosion and makes surface inspection easy. At 8.1 inches in length and 0.65 pounds, it balances reach and control for repetitive cutting tasks in tight or open work environments.

The 82179-06 is suited for industrial maintenance, automotive service, electrical work, and general mechanical applications where reliable wire cutting and gripping are daily requirements. The Pitbull line targets professional-grade use cases where tool failure or slippage is not acceptable. Its compact profile — 0.6 inches thick — allows access in confined spaces without sacrificing leverage.

Installation Notes

No installation is required for hand tools. Inspect jaws and pivot joint before use to confirm smooth action and no visible cracks or deformation. Keep cutting edges clean and lightly oiled at the pivot to maintain performance. Do not use as a pry bar or hammer substitute, as this can damage the precision-machined joint.
