Knipex KNIPEX Tools 95 12 225 StepCut® XL Cable Shears, 9"

KNIPEXTEND comfort handles make it easy to identify your tools and utilize the KNIPEX TetheredTool System lanyards and adapters by simply adding KNIPEXTEND ColorCoded Clips and TetheredTool Clips (KNIPEXTEND accessories sold separately). High-leverage joint, long handles and optimized cutting edges for an easier cut than with compact cable shears. Cuts solid copper or aluminum cables up to 2 AWG, stranded cables up to 2/0 AWG and fine stranded cables up to 4/0 AWG. Dual cutting areas: step cutting edges position cables close to the joint and the front cutting edge is used for the gradual cutting ("nibbling") of larger cables. Easy one- or two-handed operation with minimal handle opening for large cable diameters. Slim head for better accessibility. Not suitable for steel-reinforced cables, e.g. ACSR. Adjustable, high-leverage bolted joint provides precise and smooth cutting. Pinch guard prevents operators' fingers being pinched. Laser-hardened cutting edges (approx. 56 HRC). High-grade special tool steel; forged; oil-hardened. HANDLES HAVE RECENTLY UNDERGONE A REDESIGN, SO THE AVAILABILITY OF THE NEW DESIGNS AT DISTRIBUTORS WILL DEPEND ON THEIR CURRENT INVENTORY LEVELS.
