KNIPEX 64 62 120 Electronics Oblique End Cutters 120 mm

KNIPEX 64 62 120 Electronics Oblique End Cutters 120 mm
The KNIPEX 64 62 120 electronics oblique end cutter is a superb compact tool from Germany, specially crafted to meet the demands of electronic circuit board assembly and micromechanics. This model features an outstanding design with a 65° oblique angle head, solving the problem of cutting workpieces in obstructed areas or tight recesses that conventional straight cutters cannot reach. Technicians can insert the pliers to cut component leads precisely with a clear view of the workpiece.
The pliers body is forged from special high-grade ball bearing steel and oil-hardened. The cutting edges without bevel provide an ultra-flush cut right against the board surface. The cutting edges are induction-hardened to a high hardness of 56 HRC, cleanly cutting soft wire up to 1.5 mm. It features a precision box joint for increased stability without backlash, combined with a smooth-opening low-friction double spring. Together with ergonomically designed multi-component grips, it provides a comfortable, secure hold that reduces hand fatigue during prolonged repetitive cutting.
Features
65° Angled Head: Designed to bypass obstacles with ease, making cutting in tight corners or dense circuit boards effortless.
Flush Cut: Cutting edges without bevel designed to cut workpieces smoothly, leaving no nubs or burrs behind.
High Precision Cut (Induction Hardened): Induction-hardened cutting edges (56 HRC) offer high durability, cutting soft wire up to 1.5 mm.
Precision Box Joint: Zero-backlash joint mechanism prevents twisting of the jaws under load, providing a stable cutting feel.
Low-friction Double Spring: Delivers smooth, gentle, and uniform opening of the jaws, reducing palm and finger strain.
Mirror Polished: Finely mirror-polished surface with rust-inhibiting oil film (no chrome plating to prevent peeling particles from contaminating circuit boards).
Multi-Component Grips: Two-tone soft and hard plastic sleeves provide a comfortable, secure grip that will not slip during delicate work.
Applications (Suitable for)
Printed circuit board (PCB) assembly and maintenance with densely packed components, requiring an oblique angle for flush cutting component leads.
Adjustment and repair of fine mechanical devices, telecommunications equipment, smartphones, and watches.
Plastic model assembly (such as Gunpla) or DIY crafts requiring clean sprue cutting without stress marks.
Beading, jewelry making, or handicrafts requiring precision in cutting soft wire.
