Knipex Wire Rope Cutter Forged 190mm
Typical application areas of the Knipex wire rope cutters include the following: the broken clutch cable of the classic car is replicated because no original parts are available. New handbrake cables on truck trailers are produced from cable sold by the meter. These wire rope cutters from Knipex are the ideal tool in these and many other cases. With cutting capacities of upto Ø 7 mm in the case of stranded Cu cable and upto Ø 5 mm with wire rope, they are suitable for all installation work and work in workshops. The space-saving, inset opening spring provides added comfort, saving the user one hand movement during each cutting operation. As soon as manual force is withdrawn, the spring opens the pliers automatically. Those who cut wire rope frequently will quickly learn to value this feature. For transport, the wire rope cutters are secured using the pawl to prevent inadvertent opening. The adjustable bolted joint permits accurate, permanently zero backlash operation. Two valuable additional functions on the Knipex wire rope cutters replace two tools. With the accurately shaped crimping dies for end sleeves and end caps, Bowden cables and Bowden cable sleeves can be directly assembled after cutting. After shortening, end sleeves are pressed on to Bowden cable sleeves to prevent the risk of injuries. The wire rope cutters from Knipex are a cutting tool with special additional functions for assembling Bowden cables and are, for example, suitable for structural steelwork (railings, suspensions etc.), trade fair construction, agriculture, the motor trade, horticulture, apparatus engineering, servicing and repair work. Those who work professionally with tools every day expect a quality that permits simple and safe work.
