Professionals trust their tools. This trust is vital when working on electrical installations. The insulation of KNIPEX insulated and insulating tools is designed in accordance with national and international standards to reduce risk of injury if the tools make contact with an energized source with voltage up to 1000 volts. KNIPEX insulated and insulating tools meet or exceed the IEC 60900 and ASTM F1505 standards for insulated tools and comply with NFPA-70E. They are clearly marked with the official 1000 Volt rating symbol. The KNIPEX 98 55 insulated dismantling knife features a solid, sickle shaped fixed hook blade. It features a guide shoe at the blade point and will not damage the conductor insulation. The blade is crafted from stainless, air-hardened surgical steel.
