TestSafe Insulated Nose Pliers - 2 Sizes Available

Plier Adhesiveness Testing

The overall adhesion of the insulated material uses on the pliers has been tested to ensure firm bonding to the tool underneath.

Cold Impact Strength Testing

The pliers are exposed to temperature under -25°C to ensure that the insulation can't be broken by a knock. The test verifies that insulation cannot break or split.

Combustability Testing

The insulation of the plier is exposed to flame for 10 seconds. If correctly designed, no visible burn damage can be seen and the fire extenguishes itself.

Dielectric Testing

No dielectric breakdown should take place when the pliers are exposed to pressure under 20N and temperature up to 70°C at a test voltage of 5000V AC.

Dielectric Strength Testing

The pliers are tested at a voltage of 1000V AC to check the insulation. If they pass, this means that 100% safety is guaranteed when working with systems up to this threshold

Insulation Resistance Testing

The pliers are immersed in water for 24 hours and then are tested at 1000V AC for 3 minutes. Any leakage current is measured and a spark or breakdown of insulation is not acceptable to pass the test.
