Product overview:
Designed to provide you with the greatest safety, comfort, quality, and ruggedness when working on energized circuits these insulated long nose pliers with side cutters and gripping zones feature a nominal length of 8″ (200 mm). Ideal for cutting and gripping where fingers and other tools are too big.
The Fluke INLP8 Insulated Long Nose Pliers with Side Cutter, 8 in., 200 mm, 1000 V will always feel right. From the moment you first put this tool in your hand, you’re ready to go to work. The pliers offer a smooth, solid motion, without a need for break-in. Take everything that makes Fluke test tools great, and put that into insulated hand tools. That’s what you will have on your toolbelt.
Safety is critical when working with electricity. Follow the right procedures. Wear the proper clothes. Use eye and hearing protection. And make sure you use the right tools.
It is always best practice to work on deenergized equipment. But sometimes that is just not possible. Wiring changes made by someone else may provide an unplanned energy path to where you are working. You need to take every precaution you can. That means using high quality insulated hand tools, like the INLP8.
Most hand tools have rubber or plastic on the handles. That’s not the same as offering protection from electric shock, and limiting the possibility of arc faults due to short circuits. That is what makes insulated tools different.
