Pliers FELO SZCZYPCE TELEFONICZNE VDE 170 — insulated telephone pliers 170 mm

FELO SZCZYPCE TELEFONICZNE VDE 170 — insulated telephone pliers 170 mm are compact insulated pliers designed for telecommunications and low-voltage electrical work. With a 170 mm overall length, these pliers combine gripping, bending and wire-cutting functions in a small, hand-friendly tool. VDE-rated insulation provides protection when working near live low-voltage conductors, while the shaped jaws and cutting edge support precise handling of telephone wires, signal cables and small conductors.

Advantages

These insulated telephone pliers offer a balance of precision and safety: ergonomic handles with VDE-certified insulation reduce the risk of accidental contact with live parts, while the short, pointed jaws allow accurate access in confined spaces. Hardened cutting edges deliver clean cuts on soft and medium-hard copper conductors, and the robust joint ensures consistent alignment and long service life. The compact 170 mm size improves control for detailed cable work.

Suitable for

• Installation and maintenance of telephone and telecommunication lines
• Low-voltage electrical wiring and small conductor handling
• Cutting, gripping and bending of signal and telephone cables in confined spaces
• Field service and on-site repairs where compact insulated tools are required

Key specifications

• Overall length: 170 mm
• Tool type: insulated telephone pliers with cutting edge
• Insulation: VDE-rated insulated handles suitable for low-voltage work
• Functions: gripping, bending, cutting of small conductors and cables
• Jaw design: short, pointed jaws for precision in tight spaces
• Material characteristics: hardened cutting edges and durable joint construction

How to use

Hold the pliers by the insulated handles and position the jaws around the wire or cable to be gripped, bent or cut. For cutting, place the conductor fully into the cutting edge and apply steady hand pressure until the conductor is severed. Use the pointed jaws to access connectors and tight spaces, and the gripping surface to hold or bend small conductors. Inspect the insulation and tool condition before each use and avoid using the pliers on conductors beyond their intended size or hardness.

Usage recommendations

Use these pliers for telephone and low-voltage tasks only; the VDE insulation is intended for protection in low-voltage environments—do not use as a substitute for proper high-voltage rated tools. Keep the cutting edges sharp and the joint lubricated for reliable performance, and store the pliers dry to prevent corrosion.
