KNIPEX 78 61 140 Electronic Super Knips XL

The KNIPEX 78 61 140, known as Electronic Super Knips® XL, is a precision tool designed for ultra-fine cutting jobs, particularly used in electronics and precision mechanics.

Key Features

This pair of pliers is characterized by very sharp and precisely machined cutting blades without bevels, ideal for cutting thin wires, even those placed in contact with a surface, with diameters of up to 0.2 mm.

Material and Construction

The pliers are made of special steel heat treated in several phases and hardened by induction to a hardness of about 64 HRC, ensuring long life and constant precision.

The construction includes a stainless steel pin and handles with multi-component grips, which provide comfort and a secure grip.

Functionality

The design of the cutting blades involves a slight microscopic misalignment of the blades, which ensures precise and uniform cuts, minimizing operator fatigue thanks to the extremely smooth movement.

They are equipped with an opening spring and an opening limiter, which facilitate use and reduce the effort required.
