High-precision side cutter, semi-flush, 0.3 to 0.6 mm, ESD grip - JBC HPC-413

Between heat sink, connector and electrolytic capacitor there is often only a gap left for the cutter head. The HPC413 belongs to the family of small oval cutters, whose head shape carries enough material for service life and still reaches into tight areas. The semi-flush edge is built for robust cuts in hard wire up to 0.6 mm.

What the cutter delivers

• A small oval head for access to tight areas on densely populated assemblies.
• A semi-flush edge for robust cuts, which spares the cutting edge compared with a fully flush grind.
• Cutting capacity 0.3 to 0.6 mm hard wire, matching 48 to 23 AWG.
• Oval geometry with a good balance between durability and accessibility, a compromise small pointed heads do not offer.
• ESD Ergo-Tek SLIM handle for a firm grip and for environments with electrostatically sensitive devices.
• Overall length 121 mm keeps the tool easy to guide at the workplace.

Applications

• Trimming component leads after soldering on densely populated boards
• Rework and repair on electronic assemblies inside an EPA
• Precision mechanics and cable assembly with thin hard wire

Compatibility and scope of delivery

The cutter is supplied on its own. The cutting capacity figure refers to hard wire. Softer materials give different values, which the manufacturer does not state in this data.

Standards and compliance

The manufacturer property table rates the cutter as ESD safe. It is not marked as RoHS compliant in the same table. The manufacturer is JBC Soldering SL in Spain.
