High Leverage Diagonal Cutting Pliers feature Xtreme Leverage Technology (XLT™) which makes cutting easier than ever.
By positioning the rivet closer to the cutting edge, considerably less force is required to cut than other high leverage designs. State-of-the-art laser heat treating offers a strong and consistent pattern across the cutting edge for increased strength and longevity. These pliers also offer a slimmer, lighter, and better-balanced design for maximum performance and accessibility. CHANNELLOCK® Diagonal Cutting Pliers are made in USA and forged from high carbon U.S. steel that is specially coated for ultimate rust prevention.
