Diagonal cutter for plastics with flush-ground cutting faces and opening spring, 140 mm - Knipex 72 01 140

Sprue remains on injection-moulded parts must not stand proud, otherwise the part does not fit its seat and has to be reworked. The 72 01 140 diagonal cutter has flush-ground cutting faces and therefore separates plastic level with the surface, at 140 mm length and 120 g weight.

Benefits

• Flush-ground cutting faces separate moulded plastic parts and sprues level with the surface, so reworking is usually unnecessary.
• Soft materials such as lead are cut off smoothly instead of being crushed.
• The opening spring returns the pliers to the starting position after every cut, which saves hand movements in repetitive work.
• Compact build at 140 mm length and 120 g weight, low fatigue even during long runs at the bench.
• Polished head and handles covered with plastic.
