KNIPEX 5.5in (140mm) Burnished Steel ESD Super Knips® Cutters XL

Experience precision and durability with the KNIPEX 5.5in (140mm) Burnished Steel ESD Precision Electronic Super Knips® Cutters XL. Crafted from high-grade, burnished special tool steel with induction-hardened cutting edges reaching 64 HRC, these cutters are engineered for exceptional strength and a long service life, even under high load.

The precision-ground cutting edges are designed without a bevel, allowing for perfectly flush cuts on the finest wires, making them an indispensable tool for detailed work in electronics, fine mechanics, and jewellery making. The precisely shaped tips enable you to snip wires as close as Ø 0.2mm right up against a surface, minimising waste and preventing damage to sensitive components.

Designed for user comfort, the cutters feature an integrated opening spring and limiter. This provides automatic opening and an ergonomic handle width, facilitating comfortable, fast, and fatigue-free work during extended use. The precise joint, secured with a stainless steel rivet, ensures an extremely smooth and easy cutting action. The special tool steel construction is oil hardened in multiple stages for optimal toughness and resilience.
