Bočné štípacie kliešte Knipex 78 61 125 ESD

The Knipex 78 61 125 ESD diagonal pliers are precision cutting tools designed for ultra-fine work in electronics and fine mechanics. With a total length of 125 mm, a jaw length of 9 mm and a lightweight construction (56 g), these pliers are suitable for working in ESD-sensitive environments and for flush cutting small wires and component leads. The cutting edges are induction hardened to approx. 64 HRC and the tool is made from special tool steel with burnished finish; the tool features dissipative, electrically discharging handles and a stainless steel rivet joint.

Advantages

Very sharp, ground cutting edges without bevel provide clean flush cuts; precision-shaped tips enable cutting of wires resting on a board from 0.2 mm diameter. The induction-hardened cutting edges improve durability while the stainless steel rivet joint and smooth joint action reduce operator fatigue. The pliers include an opening spring and an opening limiter for controlled, repeatable operation and the dissipative handles protect ESD-sensitive components during handling.

Suitable for

• Ultra-fine cutting in electronics assembly and repair
• Fine mechanics and model making work
• Flush cutting component leads and small wires (from 0.2 mm dia.)
• Work in ESD-sensitive environments and service on circuit boards

How to use

Hold the pliers by the dissipative handles and position the precision-shaped tips around the wire or component lead to be cut, keeping the wire as close to the board as needed for a flush cut. Squeeze the handles evenly until the cutting edges close completely. Use the opening spring to return the pliers to the open position and the opening limiter to control the jaw travel as required.

Recommendations

For ESD-sensitive work, ensure you and your workspace are properly grounded in addition to using the dissipative handles. Inspect cutting edges regularly and avoid cutting hardened wire or materials exceeding the specified diameters to maintain edge life and prevent damage.
