KNIPEX 70 06 160 Diagonal Cutter Insulated 160mm

The KNIPEX 70 06 160 Diagonal Cutter is a high-precision insulated cutting tool designed for professional electrical and general workshop use. Featuring VDE-tested safety insulation rated up to 1000 volts, it provides essential protection for electricians and technicians working on live circuits. The multi-component grips offer exceptional comfort and control, reducing hand fatigue during prolonged use.

Its narrow head style is expertly engineered for accessing and working in confined, hard-to-reach areas where standard cutters cannot fit. The precision-ground cutting edges are capable of cleanly shearing both soft and hard wire, including thin copper wires, right up to the tips of the jaws. For enhanced durability, the cutting edges are induction-hardened to approximately 61 HRC, ensuring a long service life and resistance to wear.

Crafted from high-quality materials with the precise workmanship synonymous with German engineering, this diagonal cutter is a reliable and indispensable tool for all-round applications. Its robust construction and ergonomic design make it a favourite among professionals who demand performance, safety, and longevity from their tools.
