Klein Tools 9418R 6 Piece 1000V Insulated Heavy-Duty Hand Tool Set
The Klein Tools 9418R 6-Piece 1000V Insulated Hand Tool Set operates as a dielectric electrician hand tool kit engineered to cut, strip, loop, and fasten conductors near energized electrical components. Certified to ASTM F1505-16 and IEC 60900 standards for shock isolation up to 1000V AC, this 3.56-pound USA-made set features induction-hardened alloy steel forgings, a wire stripper sizing 10–18 AWG solid and 12–20 AWG stranded wire, Cushion-Grip screwdriver handles, and integral safety thumb guards. Including lineman pliers, diagonal cutters, long-nose pliers, a wire stripper, and two 4-inch shank screwdrivers (1/4 in. Cabinet Slotted, #2 Phillips), this 6-piece kit enables electrical contractors to execute safe terminations inside distribution panels, motor control centers, and switchboards.
Best Used For:
- Energized Breaker Panel & Switchboard Servicing: Slicing, stripping, and fastening electrical components near live lines certified for shock protection up to 1000V AC.
- Commercial Branch Circuit Wire Preparation: Stripping and looping 10–18 AWG solid and 12–20 AWG stranded building wire for outlet, switch, and breaker terminations.
- Cramped Junction Box Wiring: Bending conductor loops and turning recessed fasteners in narrow electrical enclosures using long-nose pliers and 4-inch shank drivers.
Key Performance & Safety Features
- 1000V Dielectric Safety Isolation: Individually field-tested to surpass ASTM F1505-16 and IEC 60900 regulations for live line shock protection up to 1000V.
- Induction-Hardened Cutting Jaws: Thermal-treated alloy steel plier knives preserve structural edge sharpness through continuous copper wire cutting cycles.
- Multi-Zone Wire Stripper Module: Precision stripping slots cleanly strip 10–18 AWG solid and 12–20 AWG stranded wire without nicking conductors.
- Multi-Layer Flame-Retardant Protection: High-impact gray and orange insulation layer repels heat and resists jobsite drop impacts without cracking.
- High-Torque Cushion-Grip Handles: Soft-touch rubberized screwdriver overmolds absorb palm friction and maximize manual turning torque.
- Integrated Safety Thumb Guards: Ergonomic handle barriers prevent fingers from slipping forward toward bare steel joints during high-leverage cuts.

Pro-Tip: Match the wire gauge marking on the 11055RINS insulated stripper exactly to the solid or stranded building wire before closing the handles. Sizing the stripping notch correctly removes insulation smoothly without scoring the copper conductor, preserving full current-carrying capacity across panel connections.
