Overview
The Klein D2488 is a plier from Klein Tools, a brand long associated with hand tools for electrical and general trade work. The listing carries no attribute data or seller description, so size, jaw style and cutting capacity are not confirmed here.
Klein's plier lineup spans lineman's pliers, diagonal cutters, needle nose and more, and the D2488 model number alone does not indicate which style this is. Buyers should check Klein's own model reference or the product images before assuming a specific jaw type.
