Needle-nose pliers YATO YT-21155, insulated handles 1000 V, 200 mm, red/yellow

YATO YT-21155 needle-nose pliers, 200 mm in length, feature long, tapering jaws for precision gripping and access into confined spaces. The tool is equipped with red/yellow insulated handles rated for 1000 V, providing protection when working on or near live electrical circuits. Constructed for electricians and technicians, these pliers combine fine-tip control with a cutting edge and corrosion-resistant finish for reliable use in maintenance, repair and installation tasks.

Advantages

The slim, elongated jaws allow accurate handling of small components and wires in tight areas while the built-in cutting edge permits trimming and stripping tasks without switching tools. Insulated handles tested to 1000 V reduce the risk of electrical shock when used correctly, and the ergonomic handle shape improves grip and control during prolonged work. Durable construction and a precise tip preserve alignment and performance under repeated use.

Suitable for

• Precision gripping and bending of wires in electrical installations
• Work in confined or recessed spaces where standard pliers cannot reach
• Cutting small wires and leads during maintenance and repair
• Tasks requiring insulated tools near live parts up to 1000 V (when used according to safety rules)

Key specifications

• Overall length: 200 mm
• Jaw type: needle-nose, tapered tip for precision
• Handles: insulated, two-colour red/yellow
• Insulation rating: 1000 V
• Cutting edge: integrated small wire cutter
• Material and finish: hardened steel with corrosion-resistant treatment

How to use

Use the needle-nose pliers to grip, bend or position small components and wires by placing the workpiece between the tapered jaws and applying steady pressure. For cutting, position the wire close to the cutting edge and squeeze the handles firmly in a single controlled motion. When working on electrical systems, verify that the insulation rating meets the application requirements and follow standard safety procedures for live-circuit work; inspect the handles for damage before each use and do not rely on insulation if the tool is compromised.

Usage recommendations

Inspect the insulation and tool integrity regularly, clean and lubricate pivot points as needed, and store the pliers in a dry place. Use appropriate personal protective equipment and follow relevant electrical safety standards when working near or on live circuits; do not use the pliers on voltages above the rated 1000 V or if the insulation is damaged.
