Klein Tools, The Most Preferred by Tradesmen Everywhere

About Klein Tools:

In the earliest days of telegraph communications when the lineman trade was just emerging Mathias Klein, a blacksmith saw the need for a reliable pliers that was the lineman's basic tool. The lineman's pliers was used to cut and shape telegraph wire, it was a handy clamping device and very often it was a blunt instrument for just about everything from driving nails to cracking nuts. After starting production of the lineman's pliers in 1857 Klein soon found the need for other products to be used in the lineman's trade. Use of the telegraph was greatly expanded during the Civil War and soon after came the telephone and electrical power industries with their own need for reliable tools.

Today the Klein tool Company manufactures a complete line of high quality tools for the construction and maintenance tradesman. The electrical and lineman tools are still the flagship products of the company and the most preferred by electricians throughout the world. The standard klein nine inch lineman's pliers (most often refered to as just "kleins") and several other tools made by Klein can be found in the tool bag of almost every journeyman electrician or lineman in America. A variety of Klein work buckets, climbing gear, cable handling tools, insulation materials and test instruments can be found on any power or communication lineman truck. No-one does it better.
