Pliers with insulated handles GEKO G01691 180 mm (7")

Pliers with insulated handles GEKO G01691 180 mm (7") are compact hand pliers designed for gripping, bending and light cutting tasks where insulated grip is required. With an overall length of 180 mm, these pliers combine a small footprint for working in confined areas and ergonomic insulated handles to reduce the risk of accidental contact with live components. The tool is intended for general electrical, maintenance and repair work and provides a practical balance between reach, control and hand comfort.

Advantages

The GEKO G01691 pliers feature ergonomically shaped insulated handles that improve grip and comfort during repetitive tasks. Their 180 mm length makes them suitable for use in tight spaces while still offering sufficient leverage for common gripping and bending operations. Hardened jaws deliver consistent performance for gripping and light cutting, and the insulated handle surface helps to lower the chance of slip during work. The balanced weight and compact size make the tool easy to carry and store in a toolbox or tool belt.

Suitable for

• Electrical installation and repair where insulated hand tools are preferred
• General maintenance and light mechanical tasks
• Work in confined spaces such as switchgear, control panels and junction boxes
• DIY projects requiring gripping, bending or cutting of wires and small components

Key specifications

• Overall length: 180 mm (7")
• Handle type: ergonomic insulated handles for improved grip
• Main functions: gripping, bending and light cutting
• Material: hardened jaws for wear resistance (metal)
• Design: compact profile suitable for tight spaces

How to use

Hold the pliers by the insulated handles and position the jaws on the object to be gripped or bent. Apply steady pressure through the handles to achieve the required grip or to bend the component; for cutting tasks place the wire or small component between the cutting edges near the pivot and squeeze firmly. Ensure the workpiece is stable and use controlled movements to avoid slippage. After use, clean any debris from the jaws and store the pliers in a dry place to prevent corrosion.

Usage recommendations

The insulated handles reduce the risk of electric shock but do not guarantee protection against high voltages. Verify the insulation rating for live electrical work and use additional safety equipment when working on energized systems. Use the pliers only within their mechanical limits and avoid cutting hardened steel or materials beyond the tool's capacity.
