Knipex 9512160SB StepCut Cable Shears 160mm

The Knipex 95 12 StepCut Cable Shears are compact professional cable cutters designed for electricians and contractors working with copper and aluminium cables. At just 160mm in length, these lightweight shears deliver powerful cutting performance without crushing the cable insulation. The innovative StepCut technology features graduated cutting edges that engage wires sequentially rather than simultaneously, reducing the force required by up to 40% compared to conventional cable shears of equivalent length. This makes cutting larger diameter cables significantly less fatiguing during prolonged use. The ergonomic handle design ensures optimal cutting feel and control even when working with heavier gauge conductors. These cable shears are ideal for cutting multi-core stranded copper and aluminium cables up to 15mm diameter (50mm²), as well as solid copper and aluminium cables up to 5 x 4mm². The precision bolted joint construction ensures smooth, effortless operation throughout the tool
