Combination pliers Wiha 27418 Professional (model Z01018006SB)

Combination pliers Wiha 27418 Professional (model Z01018006SB) are multi-purpose hand tools designed for gripping, cutting and bending wires and small components. Manufactured by Wiha as part of the Professional series, these pliers combine a serrated gripping jaw and hardened cutting edges to meet common electrical, maintenance and assembly requirements. The tool is sized for comfortable one-hand operation and built for repeated workshop or on-site use.

Advantages

These combination pliers feature induction-hardened cutting edges for durable shearing of copper and aluminum wire, while the precisely shaped jaws provide secure gripping of round, flat or irregular parts. The handles are ergonomically formed to reduce hand fatigue during extended use and offer reliable slip resistance. The overall construction emphasizes dimensional accuracy and resistance to wear, delivering consistent performance for routine professional tasks.

Suitable for

• Cutting and stripping soft electrical conductors and cables
• Gripping, bending and twisting wires and small metal parts
• General maintenance, assembly and repair work in workshops or on-site
• Electrical installation and light mechanical tasks requiring precision gripping

Key specifications

• Tool type: combination pliers with gripping jaw and cutting edge
• Material: high-strength alloy steel with heat-treated cutting surfaces
• Cutting capability: suitable for copper and aluminum conductors (soft wire)
• Jaw design: serrated gripping surface for secure hold on round and flat parts
• Handle: ergonomic, slip-resistant grips for improved comfort and control
• Finish: corrosion-resistant surface treatment for extended working life

How to use

Position the workpiece between the serrated jaws for gripping, or place the conductor into the cutting edge near the pivot for shearing. Apply steady hand pressure to avoid slipping and to obtain a clean cut; for thicker conductors use incremental cuts if needed. Use the jaw tip to bend or shape small components, ensuring the part is held close to the pivot for greater leverage. Inspect cutting edges and gripping surfaces regularly and keep the tool clean and lightly oiled to maintain performance.

Usage recommendations

Use these pliers for soft conductor cutting and general gripping tasks; do not use them on hardened steel, live electrical conductors, or as a hammer. Regularly check for wear on the cutting edges and replace the tool if cutting performance deteriorates.
