Diagonal cutter for plastics with flush ground cutting faces, 160 mm - Knipex 72 11 160

When sprue remains are removed from injection moulded plastic parts, the cut has to sit flush so that no stub is left and no rework is needed. The 72 11 160 diagonal cutter has flush ground cutting faces for exactly that and cuts right at the surface of the part, at 160 mm length and 156 g.

Benefits

• Flush ground cutting faces for cutting injection moulded plastic parts and sprue remains level with the surface.
• Cuts soft materials such as lead cleanly, the material is not crushed.
• The opening spring returns the cutter to its starting position after every cut, which helps in repetitive work.
• Polished head and plastic coated handles, 156 g at 160 mm length for low-fatigue work.

Areas of use

Plastics processing and finishing of injection moulded parts, model and mould making, and assembly work where sprue remains have to be removed cleanly. Also suitable for soft metals such as lead. The cutter is not intended for hard wire.
