Compact cable cutter designed for cutting soft copper and aluminium cables with diameters up to 20 mm. The tool features precision-ground, hardened blades and a guarded head to protect the operator's fingers. Constructed from high-grade special tool steel, forged and oil-hardened for durability, it is intended for clean, deformation-free cuts on soft conductors and is not suitable for steel wire or hard-drawn copper conductors.

Advantages

Precision-ground, hardened blades provide clean, smooth cuts without crushing or deformation. The cutter requires low hand force thanks to a favourable lever ratio and special blade geometry, enabling easy one-hand operation. An adjustable bolted joint with a self-retaining screw ensures reliable blade alignment, while the guard reduces the risk of finger pinching. The tool's forged, oil-hardened special steel construction offers long service life.

Key specifications

• Suitable materials: soft copper and aluminium cables
• Not suitable for: steel wire and hard-drawn copper conductors
• Maximum cutting diameter: up to 20 mm
• Blade: precision-ground, hardened
• Joint: adjustable bolted joint with self-retaining screw

How to use

Place the cable between the upper and lower blades, positioning it so the initial and final cut action can engage for diameters up to 20 mm. Hold the tool with one hand, ensuring fingers remain behind the guard, and squeeze the handles together until the cable is fully severed. If necessary, adjust the bolted joint to maintain optimal blade alignment and cutting performance.

Recommendations

Use this cutter only on soft copper and aluminium cables; avoid cutting steel wire or hard-drawn copper. Regularly inspect and maintain the blades and joint, and replace the tool if blades show significant wear or damage. Wear appropriate personal protective equipment during use.
