Diagonálne bočné štípacie kliešte Knipex 70 01 180

Diagonal-cutting pliers Knipex 70 01 180 are compact precision cutters (180 mm length) designed for cutting a variety of wires. Made from forged chrome-vanadium electric steel with multi-stage oil hardening, the cutting edges are induction-hardened to approx. 62 HRC to provide strength and long service life. The slim head shape allows work in confined spaces, and the plastic-coated handles improve handling comfort.

Advantages

These Knipex diagonal-cutting pliers offer precise cutting performance for both fine and thicker wires, with cutting edges hardened for durability. Their slim head enables access to tight spots while the high-quality forged vanadium steel construction ensures long-term reliability. Plastic-coated handles provide a secure grip during use.

Suitable for

• Cutting hard wire (e.g., wire rope fibre) up to Ø 2.5 mm
• Cutting soft wire (e.g., copper wire) up to Ø 4.0 mm
• Precision cutting of fine copper conductors, including with the tips of the cutting edges
• Work in confined or tight spaces thanks to slim head shape

How to use

Position the wire between the cutting edges near the desired cutting point, making sure the material is within the specified cutting capacity. Squeeze the handles evenly and steadily until the cutter severs the wire. For very fine copper conductors, use the tips of the cutting edges for precise trimming. Avoid cutting hardened steel beyond the specified Ø 2.5 mm to prevent damage to the cutting edges.

Recommendations

Use the pliers for their intended wire types and sizes, keep cutting edges clean and free of debris, and store the tool dry to maintain the induction-hardened edge. Do not use these diagonal-cutting pliers to cut live electrical conductors unless they are properly insulated and de-energized by safe work practices.
