Needle-nose pliers Knipex 98 62 02

The Knipex 98 62 02 needle-nose pliers are designed for precision tasks in constrained spaces. These 220 mm pliers weigh 130 g and feature a fibreglass-reinforced plastic construction with full electrical insulation to reduce the risk of short circuits. The ergonomic handles include a soft plastic zone for improved grip and comfortable handling during delicate operations.

Advantages

Fully insulating design lowers the chance of accidental short circuits. Fibreglass-reinforced plastic body combines light weight with mechanical strength. Class C rating for use down to -40°C ensures reliable performance in cold environments. Soft-zone handles provide enhanced grip and control for fine, precise work.

Suitable for

• Electronics assembly and repair
• Jewellery making and repair
• Work in tight or confined spaces
• Precision bending, holding and forming of small parts

How to use

Hold the pliers by the ergonomic handles with the soft plastic zone for improved grip. Use the long, narrow jaws to reach and manipulate small components in tight spaces. Apply controlled pressure appropriate to the material being handled to avoid damaging delicate parts. Do not use the pliers on live circuits unless appropriate electrical safety procedures and testing confirm de-energised conditions despite the insulating construction.

Usage recommendations

Inspect the insulation and handles for damage before each use. Clean the pliers after use and store them in a dry place. For electrical work, verify circuits are de-energised with correct testing equipment; the insulating construction reduces risk but does not replace safe working practices.
