Description
Stripping cable every day calls for a sharp edge without buying a new knife each time. The 98 56 cable knife therefore works with a replaceable straight blade of 50 mm length and special sharpening, backed by a hinged blade guard that is integrated captive in the handle.
Benefits
- Straight blade with special sharpening, replaceable, matching spare blade Knipex 98 56 09.
- 50 mm blade length for the lengthways cut in the cable sheath.
- Hinged blade guard integrated captive in the handle, no separate pouch needed.
- Back of the blade is plastic coated to avoid short circuits.
- Handle with anti-slip protection keeps the hand behind the blade while pulling.
- VDE tested to DIN EN 60900 and IEC 60900 for live working.
Areas of use
Electrical installation, distribution board and control cabinet building, cable assembly, service and maintenance. Particularly economical in continuous use because only the blade is exchanged once the edge is dull.

The knife is tested to DIN EN 60900 and IEC 60900 for insulated hand tools used for live working. According to the manufacturer it contains no substances of very high concern under REACH. The RoHS directive does not apply to this product.
