Knipex 13 42 165 Alicate Diâmetro máximo do tubo 1,3 cm Material do punho Plástico

The Knipex 13 42 165 plier is a compact multi-function electrician's tool designed for dismantling, stripping and cutting common round and damp-proof installation cables such as NYM. It has a slim, polished head and multi-component plastic grips that provide comfortable handling while keeping the tool lightweight. The plier includes precision wire stripping holes for conductors 1.5 and 2.5 mm² and an angled cable sheath cutter for easier access in deep-mounted flush sockets. Cutting parts are induction hardened and the tool is forged from vanadium electric steel.

Advantages

Slim head design and optimally angled cable sheath cutter allow simplified access in confined or deep-mounted sockets. Circular cutting edge with depth limit enables damage-free cable stripping. Built-in diagonal cutters trim conductors, wires, small screws and nails. All cutting edges are induction hardened to approx. 61 HRC for high wear resistance. The tool is approximately 30% lighter than comparable pliers, combining strength with reduced user fatigue.

Suitable for

• Dismantling and stripping round installation cables (e.g. NYM)
• Precision stripping of conductors 1.5 mm² and 2.5 mm²
• Cutting and trimming conductors, wires, small screws and nails
• Work in deep-mounted or confined flush socket installations

How to use

Place the cable into the circular cutting edge and rotate or close the plier until the sheath is scored to the depth limit, then pull the sheath off to strip the cable without damaging the conductors. Use the precision stripping holes for conductors of 1.5 mm² or 2.5 mm² by inserting the conductor into the appropriate hole and pulling to remove insulation. Use the diagonal cutters near the joint to cut or trim conductors, wires, small screws and nails. For gripping pipes or round objects up to 1.3 cm in diameter, use the serrated jaws while maintaining firm control with the multi-component handles.

Recommendations

Keep cutting edges clean and lightly lubricated after use to maintain cutting performance. Inspect the tool for wear or damage before use and wear appropriate personal protective equipment when cutting live or tensioned conductors; the tool is intended for use on de-energised circuits unless specifically insulated for live work.
