The Klein Tools D2000-9NE is a 9-inch high-leverage lineman’s side-cutting pliers engineered for heavy-duty cutting tasks. Designed for professional electricians and linemen, these pliers offer exceptional cutting power and durability, making them suitable for demanding job site work. Features: Induction-hardened cutting knives ensure long-lasting sharpness and extended tool life for heavy-duty use. 2000 Series blades are specifically designed to cut ACSR, screws, nails, and most hardened wire, ideal for utility work. High-leverage design positions the rivet closer to the cutting edge, providing up to 46% greater cutting and gripping power compared to conventional pliers. Exclusive handle tempering helps absorb the “snap” when cutting wire, reducing hand fatigue during repeated use. Hot-riveted joint guarantees smooth action and eliminates handle wobble for precise operation. Plastic-dipped handles offer comfortable grip and easy tool identification. Made in the USA from custom, high-quality tool steel for superior strength and reliability. Nose type is New England style, making the pliers suitable for holding and cleaning 5/8" (16 mm) pole line and hardware bolts or threaded rods.
