Pliers YATO YT-19981, PVC handles, 140 mm, 1 pc

YATO YT-19981 pliers with PVC-coated handles and a compact 140 mm length are designed for gripping, bending and cutting small parts during general repair and assembly tasks. The tool combines a compact size with a lightweight construction to provide precise control in confined spaces, making it suitable for both professional and DIY users who need a reliable hand tool for everyday mechanical and electrical work.

Advantages

The PVC-coated handles offer improved grip and basic insulation against contact with conductive surfaces, while the short 140 mm body gives enhanced maneuverability in tight locations. Hardened cutting edges and a robust jaw profile allow accurate cutting and firm gripping of wires, pins and small components. The single-piece packing makes it convenient to purchase and carry as a spare or for individual use.

How to use

Hold the YATO YT-19981 pliers by the PVC-coated handles and position the jaws around the workpiece. For gripping, align the part between the jaw faces and apply steady pressure. For bending, use the jaw tip to hold the piece and rotate or flex as required. For cutting, place the material between the cutting edges close to the pivot and squeeze the handles firmly until the part is severed. Inspect the cutting edges before use and avoid twisting the tool while cutting hardened materials.

Usage recommendations

The pliers are intended for light to medium-duty tasks; do not use them on live electrical circuits despite the PVC coating. Keep the tool clean and periodically lubricate the pivot joint to maintain smooth operation. Replace the pliers if cutting edges become chipped or if the handle insulation is damaged.
