The Klein Tools J2000-48 Pliers is an 8-inch heavy-duty diagonal cutter with an angled head that lets the user reach cutting points the straight-head linesman pliers can’t get to — corner cuts, recessed cuts in fixtures and panels, and wire cuts where the plier handle would otherwise hit the surrounding work. The Journeyman dual-material handles deliver firm grip with comfort over long work shifts.
Use it as the angled-head diagonal cutter for electrical-panel work, fixture-installation work where straight pliers can’t reach, automotive wiring in tight engine compartments, residential rough-in work, and any application where the 90-degree cutting angle beats the standard straight cut. The induction-hardened blades cut ACSR, screws, nails, and hardened wire.
Klein Tools has been making American-forged hand tools in Lincolnshire, Illinois since 1857 — over 165 years of continuous Klein-family ownership. Klein Tools’ USA-made line carries the company’s lifetime warranty against defects in material and workmanship.
