Klein Tools® 8" High-Leverage Diagonal-Cutting Pliers are made of tool steel for durability and feature induction-hardened cutting knives for long life. Diagonal-cutting pliers feature plastic-dipped handles for comfort and easy identification. Pliers with 13/16" jaw have hot-riveted joint that ensures smooth action and no handle wobble.
