INGCO 6" / 160mm High-Leverage Insulated Diagonal Cutting Pliers (Pince Coupante Diagonale Isolée) – 1000V VDE Certified, High-Grade Cr-V Steel, High-Leverage Design, and Ergonomic Two-Color Sleeves (HIHLDCP28160)

Snipping tough steel wires, thick copper cables, or electrical conductors under or near live circuits with uninsulated or poorly leverage-optimized pliers poses severe electrical shock risks and leads to rapid hand fatigue. Standard diagonal cutters often require immense squeezing force to cut through hard wire, leading to strained wrists and dull, notched cutting edges. The INGCO HIHLDCP28160 6" (160mm) High-Leverage Insulated Diagonal Cutting Pliers (Pince Coupante Diagonale Isolée) are professional electrical hand tools engineered for 1000V safe live-line operation, high shearing leverage, and effortless wire cutting. Certified under VDE/IEC 60900 standards, each tool undergoes rigorous high-voltage testing up to 10,000V to guarantee complete operator safety when working on energized equipment up to 1000V AC.

The cutting power and electrician safety of these diagonal pliers rely on their high-leverage eccentric joint system, drop-forged Chrome Vanadium (Cr-V) steel construction, and heavy-duty dual-color insulated handles. By moving the pivot fulcrum closer to the cutting edge, the high-leverage joint design increases cutting power by up to 35% compared to standard pliers, allowing clean cuts through hard wire with minimal manual force. Featuring precision-ground, induction-hardened cutting edges and slip-guard handle stops to prevent accidental hand contact with exposed metal parts, the HIHLDCP28160 equips professional electricians, panel builders, HVAC specialists, and maintenance engineers with a dependable 1000V certified wire cutter.

Key Features

• 1000V VDE / IEC 60900 Certified Protection – Individually tested up to 10,000V AC to guarantee certified safety for live-line work up to 1000V AC / 1500V DC.

• High-Leverage Pivot Mechanism – Eccentric joint design places the fulcrum closer to the blades, requiring up to 35% less cutting force than standard pliers.

• Premium Chrome Vanadium (Cr-V) Steel – Drop-forged and precision heat-treated body ensures high durability, edge retention, and jaw strength.

• Induction-Hardened Cutting Edges – Precision-ground cutting jaws easily shear through medium-hard wire, hard steel wire, and multi-core copper cables without binding.

• Ergonomic Dual-Material Insulated Grips – Soft, non-slip handle covers provide maximum comfort, anti-fatigue grip, and high dielectric insulation.

• Integrated Safety Slip Guards – Raised handle shoulders keep hands securely away from the metal head assembly during high-voltage applications.
