Klein Tools D2000-9NE High-leverage Side-cutting Pliers 9in

Product Description

The KLEIN TOOLS D2000-9NE is a 9-inch high-leverage side-cutting plier built for heavy-duty cutting tasks in the field. The rivet is positioned closer to the cutting edge than standard plier designs, delivering 46 percent greater cutting and gripping power. The knives meet at the hinge first, then close along at least half the knife length, producing a shearing action suited for cutting ACSR cable, hardened wire, screws, and nails. Cross-hatched knurled jaws provide a secure grip on workpieces. Electricians and lineworkers who need consistent cutting performance on tough materials will find this tool fits standard trade workflows.

The D2000-9NE is appropriate for residential and commercial electrical work, utility and telecom applications, and general mechanical trades where cutting hardened or composite wire is routine. The 2000 Series design addresses the demands of professionals working with ACSR and other reinforced conductors, making it a practical choice for electricians, lineworkers, and maintenance technicians who regularly encounter heavy-gauge or hardened materials on the job.

Installation Notes

Intended for use by qualified electricians, lineworkers, and mechanical trade professionals. Inspect cutting edges before each use and confirm the tool is appropriate for the wire type and gauge being cut.
