Choosing the right Belzer plier
Side cutter or end cutter?
A side cutter (diagonal cutter) cuts across the axis of the pliers and suits general wire severing. An end cutter cuts at the front of the head, allowing cuts flush to the surface, for example on populated circuit boards.
Head shape and access
The head shape determines reach:
- Pointed head - for tight spots and delicate work.
- Oval head - sturdier for slightly heavier wires.
- Clamping spring - holds the cut-off wire so it does not fly away.
Mind the wire size
Each cutting edge is rated for a specific wire diameter range. Match the model to the material and stay within the stated range to protect the edge and the joint. Dedicated versions are provided for hardened materials such as piano wire.
Retaining ring pliers
For retaining rings, distinguish internal from external rings and straight from angled jaws. Select the type and span range to match the groove diameter of the component.
Which type of plier fits?
| Criterion | Side cutter | End cutter | Retaining ring plier |
|---|---|---|---|
| Cutting direction | across the axis | at the front of the head | no cutting, gripping |
| Typical task | sever wires | cut flush | fit / remove rings |
| Head / jaw shape | pointed or oval | long oblique head | straight or angled |
| Field of use | electronics, fine mechanics | populated circuit boards | shafts and bores |
| Extra option | clamping spring available | grooved head | internal or external rings |
| Handles | insulated available | insulated available | chrome-plated |

Frequently asked questions about Belzer
What are Belzer pliers used for?
Belzer pliers are used for cutting and gripping in electronics, prototyping and fine mechanical work. The range includes side cutters, end cutters and retaining ring pliers.
What is the difference between a side cutter and an end cutter?
A side cutter cuts across the axis of the pliers and is used for general wire severing. An end cutter cuts at the front of the head and allows cuts flush to the surface, for example on populated circuit boards.
Which head shapes are available on the cutters?
There are pointed heads for tight spots and delicate work and oval heads for slightly heavier wires. Some models also have a clamping spring that holds the cut-off wire in place.
What is the clamping spring on some side cutters for?
The clamping spring holds the cut-off piece of wire so it does not fly off uncontrolled. This is an advantage when working on sensitive assemblies and in electronics manufacturing.
What is the difference between pliers for internal and external retaining rings?
Pliers for external retaining rings expand the ring from the outside, while pliers for internal retaining rings compress it inside a bore. In addition, straight and 90 degree angled jaws are available for different access situations.
