Diagonal cutter for plastics with flush ground cutting faces, 85° angled, 160 mm - Knipex 72 21 160

Sprue remnants on moulded plastic parts have to come off flush, without leaving a stub on the component. The 72 21 160 diagonal cutter has flush ground cutting faces for this and separates plastic level with the surface over an overall length of 160 mm.

Benefits

• Flush ground cutting faces separate moulded plastic parts and sprue remnants level with the surface, no disturbing stub is left on the component.
• Soft materials such as lead are cut smoothly, so the cut normally needs no reworking.
• The opening spring returns the pliers to the starting position after every cut, which makes long cutting sequences with one hand easier.
• Cutting edges angled by 85° according to the catalogue data, so the pliers reach the cutting point even on components with little free space.
• Polished head and plastic coated handles, the tool weighs only 165 g at a length of 160 mm.

Areas of use

Finishing work on injection moulded parts, plastics processing, model and fixture making, and assembly workstations where soft materials have to be separated cleanly without reworking.
