KNIPEX 74 06 160 Side cutter for mechanics

The KNIPEX 74 06 160 high lever diagonal cutters are high-quality tools designed for intensive and continuous use, particularly appreciated by professionals in the electrical sector.

Technical characteristics

These cutters are made of chrome-vanadium steel, forged and hardened several times, and then chrome-plated for effective protection against rust. The cutting blades are induction hardened, reaching a hardness of about 64 HRC, allowing the precise cutting of medium and high hardness wires, including piano steel wires up to a diameter of 2.0 mm.

Design and Ergonomics

<p-The geometry of the cutting blades, joint and handles has been optimized to ensure high cutting performance with minimal effort. Compared to conventional diagonal cutters of the same length, the KNIPEX 74 06 160 require 20% less effort. The multi-component, insulated and ergonomic handles provide comfort and protection when working on active electrical parts.

Performance and Use

The cutters are extremely stable thanks to their robust design with forged joint axis, but at the same time very light, weighing only 215 g. They are ideal for maintenance work, electrical installations on construction sites or in an industrial environment, and are also an excellent choice for mobile applications due to their compact size and their ability to cut hard materials effortlessly.
