Description
Between closely spaced terminal blocks every millimetre of head width counts. The 70 06 140 diagonal cutter has a narrow head style and cuts hard wire up to 1.8 mm dia. with induction hardened edges of approx. 61 HRC, at only 140 mm length and 160 g.

- Precision cutting edges for soft and hard wire, medium hard wire up to 2.5 mm dia., hard wire up to 1.8 mm dia.
- Clean cutting of thin copper wires, also at the cutting edge tips.
- Cutting edges additionally induction hardened, cutting edge hardness approx. 61 HRC for a long service life.
