The high-performance tool for handicrafts, repairs, trade fair construction and much more.
Typical applications for the Knipex wire rope cutter include: shortening a bicycle brake Bowden cable; recreating the broken clutch cable of a classic car because no original part is available, manufacturing the parking brake cables of a truck trailer from wire rope available by the meter. This wire rope cutter from Knipex is the right tool in these and many other cases. With cutting values of up to Ø 6 mm for multi-strand copper cables and up to Ø 4 mm for wire ropes, it is suitable for all uses on-site and in workshops.
Comfort and safety integrated: with opening spring and catch
The durable opening spring ensures comfort: It saves the user a manual action with every cutting operation. As soon as the hand force is released, the spring opens the pliers automatically. Anyone who frequently cuts wire ropes will soon come to appreciate this detail feature. For transport, the wire rope cutter is secured against unintentional opening by means of a catch.
