Guillotine Wire Shear for Flush Cutting Soft Wires up to 1.5 mm Diameter
This benchtop guillotine provides a fast and repeatable method for cutting soft metal wires. The hardened steel blade shears cleanly through wire, leaving a flat, flush end, unlike conventional pliers which can pinch and deform the material.
The lever action offers excellent control and requires minimal force. Two guide holes ensure the wire is held perpendicular to the blade for a precise 90-degree cut every time. The tool's substantial 1.5 kg weight prevents it from shifting during use, ensuring safety and accuracy.
Ideal for jewellers preparing wire for soldering, model makers creating consistent components, or technicians needing to batch-cut non-ferrous wires.
- Cuts soft metal wires from 0 mm up to 1.5 mm in diameter (14 gauge).
- Guillotine action provides a clean, flush cut without pinching or deforming wire ends.
- Capable of cutting multiple wires simultaneously for consistent lengths.
- Solid 1.5 kg construction provides stability on the workbench.
- Suitable for wire gauges from 40 AWG up to 14 AWG.
Is this the right tool for you?
Best for
- UK jewellers batch cutting silver or copper wire for jump rings
- Model engineers needing consistent lengths of brass or aluminium wire
- Electronics technicians trimming non-ferrous component leads
Not for
- Cutting hardened steel wire or memory wire; use specialised hard wire cutters
- Cutting wire thicker than 1.5 mm (14 gauge)
- Precision mitre cuts; this tool is designed for 90-degree cuts only
