Insulated for safety and built for strength, the KNIPEX Pliers Wrench (86 06 250) combines the control of a wrench with the versatility of pliers. It’s ideal for gripping, pressing and fitting with total confidence and replaces an entire set of metric and imperial spanners.

The VDE insulation provides protection for work on live systems up to 1,000V AC, while laser-cut metric and imperial scales make it easy to pre-set the jaw width before reaching into a live enclosure or awkward space. This practical feature allows accurate adjustment away from the workpiece, ideal for switchgear, distribution boards or control panels.
Built with high lever transmission, the 250mm Pliers Wrench delivers exceptional gripping power in a compact form. The clever internal mechanics amplify manual force by 10 times, giving the user vice-like holding strength with complete control. Even flat components can be held and processed easily, with pressure distributed evenly by the parallel jaws.
Those parallel jaws also allow the wrench to grip firmly without marking or damaging surfaces, making it perfectly suited to plated or chrome fittings. Adjustment is quick and simple thanks to the push-button mechanism so electricians can move seamlessly between different sizes. The ratchet-style action means bolted connections can be tightened or released without removing the tool, saving time and effort on site.
The Pliers Wrench VDE version sits at the heart of a much wider Pliers Wrench family, ranging from the compact XS model at just 100mm, ideal for tight enclosures and precision work, right up to the XL version at 400mm, built for heavy-duty tasks where extra reach and leverage are needed. Across the range, every model shares the same smooth jaws, precise adjustment and outstanding build quality that make KNIPEX tools a trusted choice for professionals.
