Electronics diagonal cutter with wire catcher and small bevel, 115 mm, blister card - Knipex 77 12 115 SB

A single offcut that springs away between two conductor tracks can ruin a complete assembly. Besides its round head with a small bevel, the 77 12 115 electronics diagonal cutter therefore has a wire catcher that holds the cut-off piece after the cut. Overall length is 115 mm and this version is supplied on a self-service blister card.

Benefits

• The wire catcher at the head retains the cut-off piece, no offcuts fly off uncontrolled onto the assembly or towards the eyes.
• Durable, load-optimised design with a backlash-free box joint, the cutting edges stay accurately aligned over many cuts.
• Slim multi-component grips drawn up towards the head allow fine and comfortable gripping between thumb and index finger.
• Less physical effort thanks to the high transmission ratio, the load-optimised shape gives a more direct feel when working.
• Low-friction double spring for smooth and even opening, the cutter is ready again immediately after every cut.
• Cutting edges additionally laser hardened to about 62 HRC, which keeps them sharp over a long service life.
• The mirror-polished head with a fine oil film protects against rust, no circuit faults caused by flaking chrome particles.
• Round head with a small bevel for cutting close to the component.

Areas of use

Board assembly, prototype building, repair and rework on electronic modules. The wire catcher pays off wherever many component leads are shortened one after another and every offcut has to be taken safely out of the assembly.
