High-precision side cutter, flush cut, 0.1 to 1.2 mm, ESD grip - JBC HPC-612

A lead stub left standing costs a second pass later or turns into a short circuit under the housing. The HPC612 cuts with a flush edge and covers a wide band from 0.1 to 1.2 mm. The large oval head carries the mass that intensive cutting across a shift demands.

What the cutter delivers

• A flush edge for clean cuts with no lead stub left behind.
• Cutting capacity 0.1 to 1.2 mm on medium wire, matching 38 to 17 AWG, from fine component legs to solid terminations.
• A large oval head built for intensive cutting work and the service life that goes with it.
• ESD Ergo-Tek SLIM handle for a firm grip and for environments with electrostatically sensitive devices.
• Overall length 124 mm keeps the tool balanced in the hand even during longer runs.

Applications

• Flush trimming of component leads after soldering on boards
• Intensive cutting work in series production and rework
• Cable assembly and repair on electronic assemblies inside an EPA
