Long-Nose Pliers Bosch Professional 1600A039RE, 180 mm, Chrome Vanadium

Bosch Professional 1600A039RE Long-Nose Pliers, 180 mm

The Bosch 1600A039RE are long-nose pliers with a length of 180 mm from Bosch's professional hand-tool range. The manufacturer describes them as an indispensable tool for gripping, twisting, pulling and cutting a variety of objects, designed to deliver high power transfer from hand to tool.

Chrome-vanadium steel

The pliers are made from chrome-vanadium steel for strength and resistance to wear. The tool hardness is 60 +/-2 HRC and the joint is centric. At just 0.153 kg they are the lightest tool in the multi-component handle pliers range.

Laser-hardened cutting edges

Besides the long gripping jaws the pliers also have cutting edges made from laser-hardened steel for sharpness and precision. Bosch states a cutting force 15% above the standard ISO 5745, which the article complies with, and the hardened gripping teeth provide a secure grip on the workpiece.

Multi-component handles

The handles are multi-component, slim and fitted with soft-grip areas. According to the manufacturer they help you work effectively - with better control over the tool and less strain on your hand.

Applications

The long nose is what sets these pliers apart from combination pliers: it reaches into narrow openings, behind panels and between components where a wide jaw will not fit. Typical applications are electrical installation and panel work, forming and positioning wire, gripping small parts, nuts and washers, and bending loops. The 18 mm height and 57 mm width keep the tool compact.
