KNIPEX 280mm Long Reach Needle Nose Pliers | 28 71 280

KNIPEX 28 71 280 Long-Reach Needle Nose Pliers (280mm), slim jaws

KNIPEX 28 71 280 long reach needle nose pliers are designed for gripping, adjustment and assembly work in hard-to-reach areas, thanks to a slim, very long profile that helps you access low-lying parts without needing to remove surrounding panels or plates.

The 28 71 280 combines multiple gripping profiles at the tips to handle delicate round components more gently, while still providing a more aggressive pipe grip when you need to twist less sensitive parts during installation, repair or maintenance work.

Key Features

• Long, slim reach: Helps you access components positioned deep in assemblies where conventional pliers cannot fit.
• Half-round tips: Designed to reach low-lying parts for accurate gripping and positioning.
• Milled centre ridge on the jaw: Improves control when gripping components at a distance.
• Smooth milled cross slots: Allows careful gripping, holding and guiding of sensitive round parts such as small copper pipes, hoses and plastic screw joints.
• Serrated pipe grip: Provides a firmer hold for twisting and turning less sensitive round components.
• Forged tool steel construction: Made from special tool steel and oil-hardened for durability in demanding work.
