Overview

Knipex's 74 02 200 T carries plastic-coated handles and weighs 10.72 ounces, with the 200 in its model number pointing to roughly a 200 mm, or 8 inch, tool length.

Knipex is a German manufacturer known for precision-machined hand tools, and dip-coated plastic handles are a common feature across its plier lines for a more comfortable, secure grip than bare steel. The listing does not state a voltage or insulation rating, so this should not be assumed to be an insulated tool without confirming that separately.

  • 200 mm (about 8 inch) size class
  • 10.72 ounce weight
  • Plastic coated handles

Who it's for

Fits tradespeople and DIYers who want a mid-size, comfortable-grip plier for general shop and job site work. Not the pick for anyone who needs a certified insulated tool without confirming that rating elsewhere.

Pros and cons

Pros
  • Plastic coated handles for grip
  • Compact 200 mm, about 8 inch, size class
Cons
  • Jaw type and cutting capacity not listed
  • No stated voltage or insulation rating
  • Handle material listed only as plastic

Performance notes

Plastic dip-coated handles improve grip and comfort over long sessions compared with bare metal handles, reducing hand fatigue during repeated use. The roughly 200 mm size sits between a compact plier and a full-size tool, giving enough leverage for most tasks while still fitting into tighter spaces.
