Overview
Klein's 73066 plier pairs an alloy steel handle with a light 4.8 ounce build, filed under Amazon's Tools, Pliers category. Klein is a name buyers of electrical and trade tools will likely recognize.
At under 5 ounces, this plier is light enough for extended one-handed use, and the alloy steel handle points to a durability-focused build rather than a cushioned-grip design. Beyond handle material and weight, jaw type, length and cutting capacity are not published in this listing.
