NEO tools insulated long bent pliers 160 mm 1000V polished model 01-227

NEO tools insulated long bent pliers 160 mm 1000V polished model 01-227 are professional hand tools designed for electrical installation, maintenance and repair. The pliers feature a 160 mm long body with a bent nose and polished working surfaces for accurate gripping, bending and cutting of wires and small components. Insulation rated to 1000 V provides protection when working on live or potentially live circuits, while ergonomically shaped handles ensure a secure and comfortable hold during repetitive tasks.

Advantages

The bent nose design improves access to confined or hard-to-reach areas, allowing precise work in panels, junction boxes and behind components. Polished jaws reduce damage to conductors and components while enhancing slip resistance during gripping operations. Ergonomic insulated handles offer improved control and reduce hand fatigue, and the tool’s insulation is tested to the standard for safe use up to 1000 V.

Suitable for

• Electrical installation and repair work in residential and commercial settings
• Maintenance of control cabinets, junction boxes and switchgear
• Manipulating, bending and cutting wires in confined spaces
• Work on live or potentially live circuits where 1000 V insulation is required

Key specifications

• Overall length: 160 mm
• Tip style: long bent (angled) nose for access to tight spaces
• Surface finish: polished working surfaces
• Insulation rating: rated for 1000 V
• Handle: ergonomically shaped insulated grips for secure hold

How to use

Hold the pliers by the insulated handles and position the bent tip around the wire or component to be gripped. Use the polished jaws to securely grasp, bend or pull conductors; for cutting operations use the appropriate section of the jaws if the pliers include a cutting edge. Ensure that the tool is used within its insulation rating and mechanical limits — do not apply excessive force or use the pliers as a hammer or pry bar. Inspect the insulation and working surfaces before each use for signs of wear or damage.

Usage recommendations

For safe operation, use these insulated long bent pliers only on circuits when proper safety procedures are in place and after confirming the insulation condition. Store the tool in a dry, clean place and avoid exposure to solvents or temperatures that could degrade the insulating material. Regularly inspect for nicks, cracks or wear on the handles and polished jaws to maintain safety and performance.
