Diagonal cutter chrome-plated with comfort handles for hard wire up to 2.0 mm, 160 mm - Knipex 70 05 160

Anyone making many cuts over a working day notices the difference between brute force and a good lever ratio. At 160 mm the 70 05 160 diagonal cutter supplies the leverage for hard wire up to Ø 2.0 mm and keeps the narrow head style of the series.

Benefits

• Narrow head style, so cutting points in confined working areas stay within reach.
• Precision cutting edges for soft and hard wire, medium-hard wire up to Ø 3.0 mm, hard wire up to Ø 2.0 mm.
• Cutting edges additionally induction-hardened, cutting edge hardness approx. 61 HRC, which keeps the edge sharp over many cuts.
• Clean cut on thin copper wires, also at the tips of the cutting edges.
• Comfort handles made of three ergonomic components for optimised handling, plus two KNIPEXtend interfaces for extensions.
