Designed for cutting copper and aluminum cables, these Knipex Cable Shears deliver clean, deformation-free cuts thanks to precision ground, hardened blades. The cutting action is divided between the front and rear blade sections, allowing cables up to 25/32" in diameter to be cut in a single one-handed motion. Engineered for efficiency, the optimized cutting edge and favorable lever ratio reduce effort, while a pinch guard enhances safety. The adjustable, self-locking bolted joint ensures lasting precision. Built from forged, oil-hardened special tool steel with 1000V VDE-tested insulated grips for professional electrical work.
Not suitable for steel wire and hard drawn copper conductors
Precision ground, hardened blades
Clean and smooth cut without crushing and deformation
By dividing the cutting actions into initial cut (insulating sheath in the front cutting area) and final cut (conductor in the back cutting area), cables up to 25/32" dia. can be cut in one-hand operation
Less effort required due to favorable lever ratio and optimized cutting edge geometry
Pinch guard prevents operators' fingers being pinched
Adjustable bolted joint, self-locking
High-grade special tool steel; forged, oil-hardened
