Description
Anyone cutting hard material all day feels every cutting impact in hand and forearm. The KNIPEX TwinForce 73 72 180 therefore relies on a patented double joint that transmits the force ideally and keeps the recoil small. At a length of 180 mm it cuts hard wire up to 3.2 mm dia. and piano wire up to 3.0 mm dia.
