NEO tools long straight pliers 160 mm 1000V, polished (01-223)

Long straight pliers NEO tools 160 mm 1000V (polished) are insulated hand pliers designed for electrical and general maintenance tasks. With a total length of 160 mm and polished steel jaws, these pliers provide a precise gripping surface for bending, holding and manipulating wires, small components and fasteners. Insulated handles rated to 1000 V reduce the risk of electric shock when working on live or potentially live circuits, matching the needs of technicians who require VDE-style protection in compact tool form.

Advantages

Polished jaws offer a smooth contact surface that minimises damage to conductor insulation and component finishes while ensuring reliable grip. The long straight design extends reach into confined spaces and improves leverage when bending or holding materials. Insulated handles tested to 1000 V provide electrical protection for safe operation near live parts, and the compact 160 mm length balances portability with functional reach for detailed tasks.

Suitable for

• Electrical installation and maintenance where insulated tools are required
• Electronics assembly and wiring tasks
• General repair, maintenance and workshop tasks involving small parts
• Working in confined spaces or panels where extended reach is helpful

Key specifications

• Overall length: 160 mm
• Tool type: long straight pliers
• Jaw finish: polished steel
• Handle insulation: rated to 1000 V
• Primary uses: gripping, bending, holding and manipulating wires and small components

How to use

Hold the pliers by the insulated handles and position the polished jaws around the wire or component to be gripped. Apply steady pressure for cutting, bending or holding operations, using the tool’s leverage while avoiding excessive force that could damage the workpiece. When working on electrical systems, verify that the insulation rating of the handles is suitable for the voltage present and follow safe work practices for live or potentially live conductors.

Usage recommendations

Inspect the pliers before each use for damage to the insulation or jaws; do not use if the insulation is compromised. Clean polished jaws after use to remove residues that could affect grip. Store the tool in a dry place away from solvents and sharp edges that can damage the handle insulation. Use these pliers only within the stated insulation rating and for tasks suited to a 160 mm long straight plier.
