With a 1000V AC rating, the Tolsen V38116 handles live electrical work on energized circuits. Hardened CrV steel jaws grip and cut through wires without deformation. Under the 160mm frame, VDE and GS certifications meet EN60900 safety standards.
Key Features
- VDE/GS Certification: Pliers pass 10,000V immersion tests for 1000V AC safety. Insulation remains stable during live line operations.
- Two-Component Handles: Dual-material grips include integrated slip guards for safety. Stops palm contact with conductive steel parts.
- High-Leverage Pivot: Optimized joint geometry reduces required cutting force by 35%. Cuts through thick wires with less manual pressure.
- CrV Steel Build: Black polished finish resists corrosion from heavy road dust. Jaws stay sharp through heavy industrial cycles.
- 1500V DC Rating: Insulation blocks direct current up to 1.5kV voltage levels. Suitable for solar array and battery bank maintenance.
