High leverage diagonal cutter with plastic coated handles, piano wire up to Ø 1.5 mm, 140 mm - Knipex 74 01 140

In tight distribution boxes and enclosures there is no room for long pliers, yet hard wire still has to come off cleanly. The 74 01 140 high leverage diagonal cutter is shortened to an overall length of 140 mm and cuts hard wire up to Ø 2.0 mm and piano wire up to Ø 1.5 mm thanks to its high transmission ratio.

Benefits

• Designed for very tough, continuous use, the pliers take daily duty on site and in the workshop.
• High cutting performance with minimum effort due to the optimum coordination of cutting edge angle and transmission ratio.
• Precision cutting edges additionally induction-hardened to about 64 HRC, so the edge stays sharp even on hard materials.
• For all types of wire including piano wire, medium hard wire up to Ø 3.1 mm, hard wire up to Ø 2.0 mm and piano wire up to Ø 1.5 mm.
• Plastic coated handles, at 131 g the pliers stay light and sit safely in the hand despite the short design.
• Black atramentized pliers with polished head, overall length 140 mm at a weight of 131 g.
