Knipex X-Cut

These X-Cut pliers feature a compact size and are designed for extreme stress with significant power savings. With optimal adjustment of the blade angle and gear ratio, you will achieve high cutting power with a little force. Compared to standard wire splitting pliers of the same length, you will save up to 40% of energy exertion. The pliers perfectly cut thin wires, and the jaws can be opened wide to cut even multi-layered cables and rigid spring wires. The model is also chrome-plated and insulated according to IEC 60900, making it usable with 1000V AC or 1500V DC.
