BERNSTEIN-Pliers are made from specially selected top-quality special steels. The blanks are drop-forged and are then further processed in accordance with the latest production techniques. BERNSTEIN pliers are oil-hardened and all cutting pliers additionaly undergo subsequent induction hardening. All pliers are carefully produced for the cutting capacities indicated, either with a side face for cutting hard and soft wire or without a side face for flush cutting soft wire only. BERNSTEIN pliers without side faces are marked with a dot on the head of the pliers. In the case of pliers for electronic engineers, the cutting capacities are indicated on the handle. All BERNSTEIN pliers are guaranted tools. Defective pliers will be replaced if they contain material or production defects. Special design features Most BERNSTEIN pliers for electronic engineers are produced with a box joint. As a result of this expensive design, optimum parallel guiding edges is obtained and the service lifes are long. The decision to produce a lap joint or a lay-on joint is made according to the type of pliers and the use. 60Finishes BERNSTEIN-pliers are supplied as standard in the following finishes: Bright-polished chrome-plated Fine-polished and bright-burnished Bright steel-polished Nickel-plated Burnished Additional insulation or other types of finish are indicated by a suffix after the article number Finish No.suffix chrome-plated, polished without with transparent hand-guard (=BERNSTEINIT-insulation) -1 with transparent or coloured insulation -2 with conductive black hand-guard -13 with yellow-grey hand-guard -20 nickel-plated -3 with transparent hand-guard (=BERNSTEINIT-insulation) -4 with coloured hand-guard insulation -5 with coloured insulation -6 steel-polished with coloured hand-guard insulation -8 with coloured insulation -9 with conductive black hand-guard -13 burnished -10 with coloured insulation -12 bright-burnished, fine-polished with yellow-grey hand-guard -14 with conductive black-yellow hand-guard -15 Safety insulation VDE-safety insulation -VDE two-colour multilayered insulation -VDE ESD/EGB-insulations conductive black hand-guard -13 conductive black-yellow hand-guard -15 Only the finishes indicated in the discriptions of the pliers are available from stock, all other finishes are available on request.
