Frequently Asked Questions

Are these pliers truly non-sparking?

Yes, they are manufactured from a non-ferrous beryllium copper alloy, which minimizes the risk of sparks during cutting or contact with other metal surfaces. This makes them suitable for explosive atmospheres.

Can they be used on steel wire?

They can cut mild steel wire up to 2.0 mm in diameter. For harder steels, use appropriate heavy-duty cutters.

Do they have insulated handles?

The handles are ergonomic and non-slip, but they are not rated for live electrical work. For electrical insulation, use VDE-certified pliers.

What applications are these best suited for?

They are ideal for use in oil tankers, chemical carriers, offshore platforms, and any marine environment with flammable gases, fuel, or solvent vapors.
