Lang Tools Magnetic Retractable Test Leads - 3 Leads x 10-ft. (1135)

The Lang Tools Magnetic Retractable Test Leads - 3 Leads x 10-ft. (1135) offer a highly practical and organized solution for diagnosing electrical circuits across various applications. This essential tool simplifies the process of testing voltage, continuity, and other electrical parameters in systems like cars, trailers, boats, and general household or industrial equipment. Designed with user convenience in mind, the 1135 set ensures that your test leads remain tangle-free and readily accessible, enhancing efficiency during any troubleshooting task. Its thoughtful design combines reliable electrical performance with superior storage features, making it a valuable addition to any professional or DIY toolkit.

KEY FEATURES AND BENEFITS:

• Organized Storage: The innovative retractable design allows each of the three leads to extend to the desired length and automatically rewind into its protective case when not in use. This eliminates frustrating tangles and clutter in your toolbox or workspace, saving time and extending the life of the leads.
• Extended Reach: Each of the three leads provides a generous 10-foot length, offering ample reach for testing circuits across larger vehicles or components without needing to constantly reposition your testing device or yourself.
• Secure Connections: Equipped with insulated alligator clips, these leads ensure a firm and safe grip on terminals, wires, and other connection points. The insulation provides an added layer of safety during electrical testing.
• Magnetic Mounting: The integrated magnetic back on the protective case allows for convenient mounting on any steel surface, providing hands-free operation. This feature is particularly useful when working in tight spaces or when you need both hands free for other tasks.
• Circuit Identification: The inclusion of multi-colored leads (typically red, black, and green) enables easy identification of different circuits or polarities during testing, streamlining the diagnostic process and reducing errors.

SPECIFICATIONS:

• Number of Leads: 3
• Lead Length: 10 feet (each)
• Wire Gauge: 18 gauge copper wire
• Maximum Amperage: 10 AMPS (fully unwound), 6 AMPS (wound)
• Dimensions (Case): 6.875" (width) x 9" (height) x 0.813" (thickness)
• Included in Product: 3 x retractable test leads with insulated alligator clips within a single magnetic protective case.

HOW TO USE:

1. Prepare for Testing: Ensure the power to the circuit you intend to test is either off or safely managed to prevent accidental short circuits or electrical shocks.
2. Select Leads: Identify the appropriate multi-colored test leads needed for your specific measurement (e.g., red for positive, black for negative/ground).
3. Extend Leads: Gently pull the desired test lead from its case. The lead will extend and lock at the length you pull it to.
4. Connect to Device: Attach the free end of the test leads to your multimeter or other electrical testing device.
5. Make Connections: Securely attach the insulated alligator clips to the circuit points you wish to test. Ensure good contact to get accurate readings.
6. Perform Test: Activate your testing device and take your measurements or observations.
7. Retract Leads: Once testing is complete, simply give the lead a gentle tug, and it will automatically retract back into its protective case, keeping it neat and tidy.
8. Store Conveniently: Utilize the magnetic back to attach the case to a metal toolbox, workbench, or vehicle surface for easy access and organized storage.
