PYE Side Cutting Pliers are drop forged from high grade Chrome Vanadium steel and thereafter machined and heat treated in state of the art manufacturing environment. Cutting edges are matched so accurately to cut thick and thin wires smoothly. These are thickly insulated with scientifically designed, easy-to-hold sleeves made out of cellulose acetate. Thick sleeves can withstand upto 4000 volts d.c. (or 2800 volts a.c.) ensuring better insulation and firm grip. PYE Combination Pliers have been designed for maximum leverage with minimum effort.
