KNIPEX 64 72 120 Electronics Oblique End Cutters 120 mm

KNIPEX 64 72 120 Electronics Oblique End Cutters 120 mm
The KNIPEX 64 72 120 Electronics Oblique End Cutters are professional-grade tools imported directly from Germany, designed to handle high-precision tasks such as electronics, micromechanics, and detailed hobby work. This model features cutting jaws designed at a 35° oblique angle, which enhances visibility of the workpiece while cutting and allows easy access to cut component leads on printed circuit boards (PCBs) in confined spaces.
The pliers are forged from special high-grade ball-bearing steel and oil-hardened. The cutting edges without bevel provide a completely flush cut against surfaces for wires or plastic components. The cutting edges are induction-hardened to a hardness of approximately 56 HRC, allowing sharp cuts on soft wire up to 1.5 mm. In addition, it features a sturdy box joint that minimizes jaw play and an integrated double spring for smooth, automatic opening. Ergonomically designed multi-component grips combining hard and soft plastics ensure a secure, comfortable hold and significantly reduce hand fatigue.
Features
35° Angled Head: The oblique face design provides excellent access to tight spaces and ensures a clear view of the workpiece during operation.
Flush Cut: Cutting edges without bevel deliver a smooth cut without leaving nibs or burrs on circuit boards
High Precision Cut (Induction Hardened): Cutting edges specially induction-hardened (approx. 56 HRC) for strength and durability, cutting soft wire up to 1.5 mm
Precision Box Joint: Zero-backlash joint mechanism prevents jaw distortion under force, ensuring stable cutting
Low-Friction Double Spring (Double Spring): Provides smooth, gentle, and even opening, reducing hand fatigue during continuous use
Mirror Polished: Pliers surface is mirror polished with a fine oil film to prevent rust (no chrome plating to prevent peeling chrome from causing short circuits on circuit boards)
Two-tone handles (Multi-Component Grips): Coated with 2 types of plastic (hard and soft), comfortable grip, firm in hand, non-slip during operation
Applications (Suitable for)
Trimming electronic component leads (resistors, capacitors) on printed circuit boards (PCBs) requiring a clean, flush cut
Assembly, repair, and adjustment of fine mechanical components, telecommunications equipment, or smartphones
Plastic model kit assembly (such as Gunpla) or crafting (DIY) where parts must be cut from runners with precision
Jewelry making or beading work requiring soft wire cutting in tight angles with high precision
