Klein Tools J2000-9NETP – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Can the Klein J2000-9NETP lineman's pliers pull flat steel fish tape without kinking it?
That is what the channel in the head of the J2000-9NETP is for. It grips 1/8-inch or 1/4-inch flat steel fish tape and pulls it without damaging the tape, so you aren't crushing the tape in the jaws or wrapping it around a screwdriver. Round or rope-style fish tape isn't what the channel is sized for.
2) Are these Klein 9-inch lineman's pliers insulated for live electrical work?
No. The J2000-9NETP is not insulated, so it must not be used on energized conductors. The dual-material Journeyman handles are there for grip and comfort, not dielectric protection. If you need live-work capability, specify a 1000V insulated lineman's plier instead.
3) What will the knives on these lineman's pliers actually cut?
The precision machined knives, 0.781 inch (2 cm) long, handle fine stranded wire, mule tape, pull line, ACSR, screws, nails and most hardened wire. The head and knives are induction hardened US-made tool steel, so they hold an edge on the harder stuff rather than nicking.
4) How big an object will the jaws open to grip?
Jaw capacity is 1.375 inch (3.5 cm), with a 1.594 inch jaw length, 1.25 inch jaw width and 0.625 inch jaw thickness. That covers conduit nuts, bolts, bundled conductors and most gripping and twisting work an electrician does on the job. The jaw faces are cross-hatched and knurled for hold.
5) Can these pliers be tethered for work at height?
No. The J2000-9NETP is not tether capable, so there is no lanyard hole or tether point in the handles. For aerial or elevated work where a drop-prevention tether is required by the site, you need a tether-capable lineman's plier instead of this one.
6) What is the exact part number to order for the Klein fish tape pulling lineman's pliers?
Order Klein Tools J2000-9NETP. That is the 9-inch Journeyman lineman's plier with the fish tape pulling channel, steel construction, light blue and black dual-material handles. The plain J2000-9NE is the same size without the fish tape channel, so the TP suffix is the one that matters if you want the channel.
7) Will these 9-inch pliers fit in a standard electrician's pouch or tool belt loop?
Overall length is 9.55 inches (24.3 cm) with a 2.06 inch overall width and 0.75 inch overall height, and the tool weighs 1.1 lbs. That is the standard 9-inch lineman's footprint, so it drops into the usual plier loop on an electrician's pouch. Handle length is 5.55 inches (14.1 cm).
8) What is the difference between the Journeyman dual-material handle and a plain dipped handle?
The Journeyman handle on this plier has a hard black core for strength with a softer outer layer over it for grip and comfort through a long day of cutting and twisting. A plain single-material dipped grip gives you neither the firmer core nor the cushioned surface. Handle colour here is light blue over black.
9) Do these Klein lineman's pliers develop handle wobble over time?
The joint is hot-riveted, which is what keeps the action smooth and takes the side-to-side slop out of the handles. Combined with the handle tempering that absorbs cutting shock, that is the part of the build aimed at tool life rather than first-day feel.
