KNIPEX 7371180 Twinforce High Performance Diagonal Cutters 180mm

Knipex 7371180 TwinForce superior High-Leverage Diagonal Cutter with patented double joint The Knipex 7371180 TwinForce Diagonal Cutter has ideal transmission of force due to double-hinged design. Reliably cuts all types of wire, including steel tape and are more than capable for rough or very fine cutting. In terms of reinforcement of manual force, the Knipex TwinForce is one of the strongest models of pliers from Knipex: manual force is reinforced up to 39 times over. Instead of a central axle as with conventional diagonal cutters, the rotating movement on the TwinForce is guided by two guide bolts outside the pivot point. In the centre where the rivet (the axle) would otherwise be, the TwinForce has room for the material to be cut, and so lies very close to the pivot point. The very large transmission ratio in this design is gentle on hands, particularly when used for sustained periods, e.g. during wire production. Features: Low cutting impact: gentle on hands. The tension on muscles and tendons is relieved For comfortable cutting, repetitive cutting or extremely hard cutting jobs High degree of stability and zero-backlash due to precisely milled forged-in axles Cutting edges additionally induction-hardened, cutting edge hardness approx. 62 HRC Chrome vanadium electric steel, forged, multi stage oil-hardened Specification: Pliers: black atramentized Head: polished Handles: plastic coated Dimensions: 180 x 49 x 16 mm Standard: DIN ISO 5749 Cutting capacities soft wire (diameter): 5.5 mm Cutting capacities medium hard wire (diameter): 4.6 mm Cutting capacities hard wire (diameter): 3.2 mm Cutting capacities piano wire (diameter): 3.0 mm Weight: 0.255kg
