Wiha Multifunctional Pliers for Electricians 8-in-1 I Crimping, Stripping, Cutting, Gripping, Deburring, Bending, Screwing, Cutting Screws (45705)

I didn't know I needed this tool until I bought it; now, it is used daily.

So versatile these pliers, I like that they have the spring built in, you don't have to use the spring if you don't want to as well so this is a great feature. I think I prefer these over my Knipex pliers :-)

First impressions were very good....nice finish, well made solid pivot point and accurate machining. This will do it all....crop cables up to 12mm2, strip .7, 1.5 and 2.5mm cable, reach into tight spaces, pull cables without damaging them, grip hard when required, crimp bootlace ferrules, cut pattress screws, bend loops, clean and ream knockouts etc. I was initially disappointed to discover that these are not made in Germany, but rather Vietnam....however, they are so good and useful that I will overlook that minor gripe....they seem every bit as useful and well- made as their Knipex rivals.

Every spark should have these in their tool kit

Multipurpose and beautifully built and designedQuality costs.

Best electrician pliers on the market

slowly getting used to these kept in my tester bag mainly completing eicrs however why is the screw cutter only 3.3 not 3.5 to fit patress screws i may attempt drill out as one side is already correct i should have researched more as was the reason i bought over the knipex

It is comfortable and easy to use.
