Pliers Knipex 31 11 160

Knipex 31 11 160 pliers are precision gripping (needle-nose) pliers designed for working in tight spaces and for accurate bending, holding and positioning of small parts. The tool combines a polished head with a black-oxide (atramentized) finish on the jaws and plastic-coated handles to improve grip and protect the user's hands. Built with robust construction, these pliers deliver reliable performance for general assembly, repair and maintenance tasks.

Advantages

These Knipex pliers provide fine-point access for precision tasks while offering good leverage thanks to their solid construction. The polished head ensures smooth contact surfaces, and the black-oxide finish on the jaws increases corrosion resistance. Plastic-coated handles improve comfort and reduce slippage during use. The tool is compact and durable, suitable for repeated professional and DIY use.

Suitable for

• Holding and bending small wires and components
• Reaching into narrow or confined spaces
• Electronics assembly and repair (non-live electrical work)
• Precision mechanical work and model making

How to use

Hold the pliers by the plastic-coated handles and position the fine jaws around the workpiece. Apply controlled pressure to grip, bend or position components. Use the pointed tips for access in tight spaces and the jaw length for leverage when bending thin wires. Do not use the pliers on live electrical circuits, cutting hardened materials, or as a hammer.

Usage recommendations

Keep the pliers clean and lightly lubricated at the pivot to ensure smooth operation. Store in a dry place to protect the black-oxide finish. For electrical work, ensure the circuit is de-energized before use; these pliers are not insulated for live-voltage protection.
