Milwaukee MT558 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Can the Milwaukee MT558 diagonal cutting pliers be tethered for work at height?
Yes, the MT558 8 inch diagonal cutting plier is tether ready, so it can be attached to a lanyard for elevated work on lifts, ladders, or scaffold. That matters on commercial sites where dropped-object rules apply.
2) Are Milwaukee MT558 pliers made in the USA?
The MT558 is made in the USA with USA sourced materials, which is what government, education, and other public-sector buyers need when a domestic-content requirement is written into the purchase order.
3) What is the difference between the MT558 comfort grip and the dipped grip version of Milwaukee's 8 inch diagonal cutters?
Same cutter, different handle. The MT558 is the comfort grip version, with a cushioned overmolded handle for repeated cuts all day; Milwaukee also builds this 8 inch diagonal cutter with a dipped grip, which is a thinner vinyl coating some electricians prefer for feel and lower cost. Pick comfort grip if you're cutting wire continuously.
4) Will these diagonal cutters get into a crowded panel or box for a flush cut?
Yes. The MT558 has a tapered nose, so it reaches into a stuffed device box or panel gutter and trims conductors flush against the termination instead of leaving a stub. The 8 inch handle length still gives you leverage on heavier cuts.
5) What are the MT558 cutting edges made of and will they hold up on hard wire?
The plier body is press-forged steel with a laser hardened cutting edge, which is what lets it keep an edge through repeated cuts rather than rolling over. Milwaukee builds the 8 inch size for leverage on tougher cuts.
6) What Milwaukee part number do I order for the 8 inch comfort grip diagonal cutting pliers?
Order Milwaukee MT558. That is the manufacturer part number for the 8 inch comfort grip diagonal cutting plier, and it is a single configuration, so there is no finish or size option to specify.
7) Are these diagonal cutters or lineman's pliers? Which do I need?
The MT558 is a diagonal cutter, meaning it only cuts. The jaws are angled and tapered for cutting and flush trimming in tight spots. If you also need to grip, twist, or pull wire, you want a lineman's plier instead and should carry both on the belt.
