The Klein Tools 1009 Multi-Tool is a long-nose plier built for electrical wiring tasks that would otherwise need three separate tools: stripping insulation off 8-22 AWG wire, crimping insulated and non-insulated terminals, and cutting wire to length. The long nose adds reach for working in device boxes and panel terminations without swapping tools mid-job.
It’s the tool that earns its place in an electrician’s pouch by covering the most-repeated wire-prep steps with one plier. The stripping holes are sized and labeled by gauge so you can find the right one without checking, and the cushion-grip handles cut hand fatigue across hundreds of strips and crimps.
Klein Tools has been making hand tools for electricians and tradespeople since 1857, headquartered in Lincolnshire, Illinois. The Journeyman and Standard pliers lines — along with many of Klein’s cushion-grip screwdrivers — are forged and finished in the United States, and clearly marked as such, so you know exactly what you’re buying.
