Insulated Long-Nose Pliers · 8-1/2 in (216 mm) · 1000V Rated with Cutter · IDEAL 35-9038
What this product is for
IDEAL 35-9038 is an insulated long-nose plier with cutter for electricians working around energized equipment where a 1000V-rated hand tool is required. The tapered nose helps reach terminals, conductors and small components in confined spaces such as panels, cabinets and control assemblies.
Use for
- Gripping and bending conductors in tight spaces
- Cutting wire during panel, device and control work
- Electrical maintenance where insulated hand tools are specified
- Residential, commercial and industrial service work
Avoid for
- Use on hardened materials or applications beyond the cutter's intended wire-cutting use
- Use where insulation is cut, worn or visibly compromised
- Use as a substitute for lockout, PPE or safe live-work procedures
Best for
Best for electricians and maintenance technicians who need a slim insulated nose plier for terminal work, wire looping and light cutting in confined electrical spaces. This style is commonly chosen when standard linesman pliers are too bulky for the task.
Installed in
Typically used in service panels, distribution equipment, control cabinets, switchgear support work, junction boxes and equipment rooms. As a rule of thumb, long-nose insulated pliers are commonly used where access is limited and conductor control matters more than maximum cutting force. Actual suitability depends on conductor type, access and site safety procedures.
Why this product exists
This tool combines narrow access, wire control and insulated protection in one plier. The dual-layer insulation provides a visible warning layer if the outer coating is damaged, helping crews identify when the tool should be removed from service.
Compared with similar products
Compared with insulated linesman pliers, this long-nose pattern offers better reach and control in tight spaces but is not the first choice for heavier twisting or higher-force cutting. Compared with non-insulated long-nose pliers, it is intended for electrical work where a 1000V-rated insulated tool is required.
