Cable shears with twin cutting edge for Cu and Al cables up to 20 mm, plastic-coated handles, 200 mm - Knipex 95 11 200

A cable that is crushed while being cut is difficult to strip and terminate afterwards. The 95 11 200 cable shears cut copper and aluminium cables up to 20 mm diameter, that is up to 70 mm² cross-section, cleanly and smoothly, because the twin cutting edge divides the cut into two steps.

Benefits

• Clean and smooth cut without crushing or deforming the cable.
• Splitting the action into an initial cut for the insulating sheath in the front cutting area and a final cut for the conductor in the rear area allows cables up to 20 mm diameter to be cut in one-hand operation.
• Pinch guard prevents the operator from trapping fingers.
• Precision-ground hardened blades for a permanently clean cut.
• Low hand force required thanks to a favourable lever ratio and a special blade geometry.
• Adjustable bolted joint with a self-retaining screw, so blade clearance can be reset over the service life.

Areas of use

Electrical installation, control cabinet and plant construction, power supply work and service on cable routes. The shears are not suitable for steel wire, hard drawn copper conductors and wire ropes, which call for bolt cutters or wire rope shears.
