Knipex 70 06 160 VDE Diagonal Cutters

Diagonal cutters cut wire, cable, nails and plastic profile from the side. Edge geometry and hardness decide the choice: a standard edge suits soft wire, while an induction-hardened edge handles piano wire and hardened steel. Electronics models are small and precise, usually cutting flush; the ESD range comes with handles that do not build a static charge. VDE-marked insulated models are rated for live working to 1000 V and are individually tested. Length sets the leverage, and with it the wire diameter one hand can cut. Key figures for this item: length 160 mm, weight 205 gr. It is VDE-marked: rated for live working to 1000 V and individually tested before dispatch. Listed under manufacturer part number KNI7006160.
