Our 9-inch High-Leverage Lineman’s Pliers with Thread Cleaner are designed to have maximum leverage and make easier cuts. A hinged opening on the pliers allows you to hold and clean 5/8'' (16 mm) pole line, hardware bolts and threaded rod. The on-board crimper lets you use the pliers for insulated and non-insulated electrical terminals. The lineman's pliers also feature a fish tape puller. All of our pliers are forged for strength and feature rust protection with a Limited Lifetime Warranty.
