Knipex Cable Shears With Twin Cutting Edge allow professional cutting of cables with large cross-sections
The Knipex 9511200 Cable Shears With Twin Cutting Edge are 200mm in length and are designed to cut stranded Cu and Al cable up to 70mm² in two operations. In the front cutter profile there is an initial cut into the insulating sheath on larger cable cross-sections; the metal conductors are subsequently cut in the back cutter profile. This division of work on the twin cutting edge makes work easier for the user. The initial cut in the front profile also provides a hand-friendly grip position for large cross-sections. Knipex cable shears cut with the twin cutting edge using a scissors action, and therefore cut very smoothly and cleanly. Diagonal cutters, with blades that meet at an obtuse angle, and which crush cable insulation and deform cable ends are not really suitable for cutting cable. The cable shears demonstrate their qualities when shortening stranded and finely stranded Cu and Al cables, also with large cross-sections. For reasons of design, the cable shears must not be used to cut steel wire or hard drawn copper conductors. Comparatively little effort is required due to the favourable transmission ratio, thereby conserving the manual force of the fitter. The precisely running bolted joint also contributes to comfortable work using these cable shears. The bolted joint is self-locking and can be adjusted where necessary.
Features:
- For cutting copper and aluminium cables
- Not suitable for steel wire and hard drawn copper conductors
- Precision-ground, hardened blades
- Clean and smooth cut without crushing and deformation
- By dividing the cutting actions into initial cut (insulating sheath in the front cutting area) and final cut (conductor in the back cutting area), cables up to Ø 20 mm can be cut in one-hand operation
- Low handforce required due to favourable lever ratio and special blade geometry
- Pinch guard prevents operators' fingers being pinched
- Adjustable bolted joint, self-retaining screw
- High-grade special tool steel, forged, oil-hardened
