Lineman's Combination Pliers STANLEY FATMAX 200 mm, 340 g, black/yellow handle

STANLEY FATMAX Lineman's Combination Pliers, 200 mm length and weighing 340 g, are designed for gripping, cutting and twisting wires in electrical and mechanical tasks. This single-piece combination plier integrates a serrated gripping surface, a cutting edge suitable for soft and medium-hard wires, and a joint geometry that provides leverage for twisting and pulling. The handles feature a black and yellow insulated coating that improves hand contact and reduces slipping during use.

Advantages

The tool offers multifunctional performance for a range of tasks: firm serrated jaws for reliable gripping, a hardened cutting edge for clean wire cuts, and a robust forged construction for durability under repeated load. The insulated dual-color handle design enhances visibility and grip, while the 200 mm length balances reach and control. At 340 g, the pliers provide a stable feel without excessive weight, suitable for both professional technicians and home users.

Suitable for

• Gripping and bending electrical conductors and cables
• Cutting copper and aluminium wires of small to medium gauge
• Twisting wire ends and making looped terminations
• General mechanical tasks requiring a combination plier (pulling, holding, shaping)
• Use in workshop, construction sites and domestic repair work

Key specifications

• Overall length: 200 mm
• Net weight: 340 g
• Material: forged steel body with hardened cutting edge
• Jaw type: serrated gripping surface with integrated cutting section
• Handle: insulated black and yellow coated grip for slip resistance

How to use

Hold the pliers by the insulated handles with a firm grip. Use the serrated jaws to grasp or bend conductors and apply steady force toward the pivot for pulling or twisting actions. Position wire into the cutting section close to the pivot for maximum leverage and perform a clean cut with controlled pressure. After use, wipe the tool clean and store in a dry toolbox or on a tool rack to avoid corrosion.

Usage recommendations

For safe performance, inspect the pliers before each use for wear or damage to the cutting edge and handle coating. Do not use the pliers on live electrical circuits; verify circuits are de-energised before working. Use appropriate personal protective equipment such as safety glasses and gloves when cutting or twisting wires.
