Needle-nose pliers Knipex 30 11 140

The Knipex 30 11 140 needle-nose pliers are compact precision pliers designed for work in confined spaces. With a total length of 140 mm, a jaw length of 42 mm and a jaw thickness of 8 mm, these pliers provide controlled access to small parts and narrow assemblies. Their lightweight construction of approximately 86 g makes them convenient for extended use in electronics, fine mechanical work and other tasks requiring accurate grip and manipulation.

Advantages

These needle-nose pliers offer a precise tip profile and slim jaws that facilitate access to tight locations while maintaining secure grip. The short overall length improves control and maneuverability in detailed work. Built from durable materials, the pliers resist deformation under normal working loads, ensuring sustained performance over repeated use. Low weight reduces hand fatigue when performing delicate or repetitive operations.

Suitable for

• Electronics assembly and repair
• Fine mechanical adjustments and small part handling
• Jewellery making and hobby crafting
• Accessing connectors and components in confined spaces
• General precision gripping and bending tasks

Key specifications

• Overall length: 140 mm
• Jaw length: 42 mm
• Jaw thickness: 8 mm
• Weight: approx. 86 g
• Tip style: needle-nose / slim profile for precision work
• Construction: hardened plier jaws for wear resistance

How to use

Hold the pliers by the handles with a comfortable grip and align the slim jaws with the workpiece. Use gentle, controlled pressure to grasp, bend or position small parts; avoid applying excessive force that could damage delicate components or the plier tips. For repetitive tasks, reposition the hand periodically to maintain comfort. Keep the contact surfaces clean and free of debris to ensure reliable gripping performance.

Usage recommendations

Use the pliers for precision tasks within their mechanical limits; do not use them as a substitute for cutting tools, heavy-duty gripping or prying. Regularly inspect for wear or damage and maintain by cleaning and light lubrication of the pivot if necessary. Store in a dry place to prevent surface corrosion.
