Frequently Asked Questions
Are these pliers truly non-sparking?
Yes, they are manufactured from a copper-beryllium alloy, which is classified as a non-sparking material. This ensures they do not produce sparks even when struck against hard surfaces, making them safe for use in explosive atmospheres.
What hazardous areas are these pliers suitable for?
They are designed for use in Zone 0, 1, and 2 hazardous zones, as well as marine environments such as oil tankers, gas carriers, and offshore platforms where flammable gases, vapors, or dust may be present.
Can these pliers cut hard steel wire?
They are optimized for medium-hard wire up to 2.0 mm in diameter, such as copper, aluminum, and steel wire. For harder materials, we recommend using specifically rated cutting tools.
Is the IMPA 615880 code important for ship supply?
Yes, the IMPA code is an internationally recognized classification system used in marine procurement. Using the correct code ensures that ships receive the exact spare parts and tools they have ordered, minimizing delays and errors.
