Proto J204G Diagonal Cutting Plier 4-7/16 in Oval Head

Product Description

The PROTO J204G is a diagonal cutting plier designed for cutting wire, cable, and other soft materials in electrical, mechanical, and general maintenance work. It measures 4-7/16 inches in overall length and features an oval head profile that provides good visibility in tight work areas. The jaw length is 9/16 inches, giving the cutting edge enough reach for most standard wire gauges. The plastic handle keeps weight low at 0.2 pounds, making it easy to use in extended hand-tool work. Electricians, technicians, and maintenance professionals reach for this size when working in confined panels, junction boxes, or light fabrication tasks.

This plier is suited for light-duty cutting tasks in residential and commercial electrical work, instrumentation, electronics assembly, and general maintenance environments. Its compact 4-7/16 inch form factor makes it practical where a full-size diagonal cutter would be awkward to maneuver. The oval head design reduces interference with adjacent components, which is common in panel wiring and terminal block work.

Key Features

• 4-7/16 inch overall length for compact, close-quarter cutting
• 9/16 inch jaw length suitable for standard wire and light cable
• Oval head style improves sightlines and reduces interference in tight spaces
• Plastic handle keeps total weight at 0.2 pounds for reduced hand fatigue
• Standard cutter style for general-purpose diagonal cutting applications
• Non-insulated construction — suitable for non-energized work or use with appropriate PPE

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose diagonal cutting plier for hand-tool applications in electrical, mechanical, and maintenance trades.

Installation Notes

This tool is not insulated and should not be used on energized circuits without appropriate personal protective equipment per applicable NFPA 70E requirements. Electricians and technicians should verify the work area is de-energized before cutting conductors. Inspect the cutting edges before use and replace the tool if jaw alignment or edge condition is compromised.
