Klein Tools D248-9ST Diagonal Cutting Pliers 9.1875 in

Product Description

The KLEIN TOOLS D248-9ST is a high-leverage diagonal cutting plier designed for electricians and tradespeople who need reliable cutting performance in tight spaces. The high-leverage design delivers 36 percent greater mechanical cutting and gripping advantage compared to standard 7-inch and 8-inch heavy-duty diagonal cutters. The angled head allows easier access in confined areas, and the hooked handle improves grip control during extended use. At 0.75 pounds, the D248-9ST is built for all-day field work without excessive fatigue.

The D248-9ST is suited for electrical rough-in, panel work, conduit preparation, and general wire cutting tasks where a compact, high-performance cutting plier is required. The 9.1875-inch overall length and angled jaw profile make it practical for working inside enclosures, junction boxes, and other restricted spaces common in residential and light commercial electrical installations.

Installation Notes

These pliers are a hand tool and require no installation. Electricians and tradespeople should de-energize circuits and follow applicable NEC lockout/tagout procedures before cutting any conductors. Inspect the cutting edges before use and do not use damaged or worn pliers on energized work. Store with jaw guards or in a tool pouch to preserve cutting edge condition.
