Cable shears with twin cutting edge up to Ø 20 mm, VDE tested insulation, 200 mm - Knipex 95 16 200 SB
Insulated cable shears with twin cutting edge for copper and aluminium cable up to Ø 20 mm, equivalent to 70 mm². A pre-cut for the insulating sheath and a final cut for the conductor keep the effort low, so even this diameter is cut with one hand. The multi-component grips are VDE tested for work up to 1000 V.

Description
Parting a Ø 20 mm cable in a distribution board takes noticeable effort with an ordinary shear. The 95 16 200 SB cable shears therefore split the cut: the front part of the cutting edge pre-cuts the insulating sheath and the rear part parts the conductor, so copper and aluminium cable up to Ø 20 mm, that is up to 70 mm², stays cuttable with one hand. The multi-component grips are VDE tested for work up to 1000 V.
Advantages
- Cuts copper and aluminium cable up to Ø 20 mm (70 mm²) cleanly, without crushing the conductor.
- Twin cutting edge with a pre-cut for the insulating sheath and a final cut for the conductor, so the full diameter can be cut single-handed.
- Insulated multi-component grips, VDE tested for work on live parts up to 1000 V.
- Low effort thanks to favourable leverage ratios and a special cutting edge geometry.
- Hardened cutting edges with a precision grind for a long service life of the cutting edge.
- Adjustable screwed joint, self-locking, plus a pinch guard against crushed fingers.
Areas of use
Electrical installation, control cabinet and plant construction, power supply, service and maintenance. The combination of twin cutting edge and tested insulation suits work on larger cross sections close to live parts.
Standards and conformity
The handles are insulated with multi-component grips and VDE tested for work on live parts up to 1000 V according to IEC 60900. The manufacturer lists the base version 95 16 200 with the standards DIN EN 60900 and IEC 60900.
