Knipex Cable Shears with Twin Cutting Blades

Knipex Cable Shears with twin cutting edge are designed for cutting cables up to 20 mm dia. Even in case of large cable cross sections handles are always in a favourable position due to initial and final cut. These cutters feature:

• for cutting copper and aluminum cables
• 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 Ø 20 mm can be cut in one-hand operation
• less effort required due to favorable lever ratio and optimized cutting-edge geometry
• guard prevents operators’ fingers being pinched
• adjustable bolted joint, self-retaining screw
• High-grade special tool steel, forged, oil-hardened

	An initial cut uses the upper cutting edge, and an ergonomic handle opening is guaranteed even in case of large cable diameters.
	If higher handforce is required, an additional cut can be done with the cutting edge profile near the joint.
	Some cutters crush and deform the cable. Eliminate this problem with Twin Cutting Edge Cable Shears.
