Cable shears VDE tested for Cu and Al cables up to Ø 15 mm with tether eyelet, 165 mm - Knipex 95 16 165 T

On ladders and scaffolds two things matter: the cut has to succeed on the first pull and the tool must not fall. The 95 16 165 T cable shears cut stranded copper and aluminium multi-core cables up to Ø 15 mm, that is up to 50 mm², and carry an integrated insulated attachment point for a tool tether.

Benefits

• Clean and smooth cut up to Ø 15 mm, the cable is not crushed and the conductor cross-section is preserved.
• Easy cutting with one-hand operation, also overhead and in poorly accessible places.
• Precision-ground hardened blades for a long service life.
• Adjustable self-retaining bolted joint, so blade clearance can be corrected over the service life.
• Handles insulated with multi-component grips and VDE tested to DIN EN 60900 and IEC 60900.
• Integrated insulated attachment point for the KNIPEX Tethered Tool System, plus a guard on the handles.
