Cable shears for copper and aluminium cable up to 15 mm dia., with guard, 165 mm - Knipex 95 11 165

A cable crushed by a side cutter no longer fits the lug properly and the contact resistance goes up. The 95 11 165 cable shears cut fine-stranded multi-core copper and aluminium cables up to 15 mm dia. cleanly and smoothly, which corresponds to a cross-section of 50 mm2.

Benefits

• Clean and smooth cut without crushing, so the conductor keeps its shape for crimping.
• Cuts fine-stranded multi-core copper and aluminium cables up to 15 mm dia., matching 50 mm2 or AWG 1 and 0.
• Easy cutting with one-hand operation, the second hand stays on the cable.
• Adjustable bolted joint with self-retaining screw, so the cutting clearance can be corrected over the service life.
• Precision-ground hardened blades for clean cut edges even on fine-stranded conductors.
• With guard, the fingers stay clear of the closing handles.
