The Knipex 26 12 200 is a premium 8-inch long nose plier with cutter, designed for precision work in confined spaces. Its elastic precision tips and induction-hardened edges make it ideal for HVAC and electronics tasks. It is not suitable for live electrical work due to lack of insulation.

The set includes two tongue and groove pliers, long nose pliers, diagonal cutters, and lineman's pliers, all stored in a portable tool roll pouch. It is best suited for professionals who need a complete toolkit for general mechanical and electrical work.
