Rebar Pliers Knipex 300 mm, increased leverage, reinforced, nickel-plated (99 14 300)

Knipex rebar pliers 300 mm are reinforced, nickel-plated pliers with increased leverage designed for gripping, bending and cutting rebar and heavy wire. With a 300 mm overall length and robust construction, these pliers deliver high clamping force and improved mechanical advantage for demanding concrete reinforcement, metalworking and construction tasks. The nickel-plated surface provides corrosion resistance and a smooth finish suitable for jobsite environments.

Advantages

Reinforced jaws and a sturdily built hinge produce reliable force transmission and long service life under heavy loads. Increased leverage from the 300 mm length reduces manual effort when bending or cutting thick steel wire and rebar. Nickel plating protects the tool against rust and abrasion while maintaining precise jaw alignment for consistent gripping and cutting performance. The design balances strength and handling for controlled operation in tight or exposed work areas.

Suitable for

• Gripping and bending reinforcing bars and tie wire
• Cutting heavy wire and small-diameter rebar
• Construction and concrete reinforcement work
• Metal fabrication and site repair tasks

Key specifications

• Overall length: 300 mm, providing increased leverage
• Construction: reinforced design for heavy-duty use
• Surface finish: nickel-plated for enhanced corrosion resistance
• Functions: gripping, bending and cutting of rebar and heavy wire
• Typical materials handled: steel rebar, tie wire and other heavy wire

How to use

Position the pliers so the jaws fully encompass the section of rebar or wire to be gripped or cut. Apply steady pressure to the handles, using the increased leverage of the 300 mm length to reduce hand force required. For bending, hold the rebar in the jaws at the required point and rotate the tool or bend the bar to the desired angle. For cutting, align the cutting edges with the wire and close the handles until severed. Inspect the jaws and cutting edges after heavy use and adjust handling technique to maintain control during operation.

Usage recommendations

Use appropriate personal protective equipment such as gloves and eye protection when working with rebar and heavy wire. Keep the pliers clean and lightly lubricated at the hinge to ensure smooth movement. Store in a dry place to preserve the nickel-plated finish and inspect regularly for wear before use on critical tasks.
