Heavy Duty Compound Sprue Diagonal End Cutters for Jewellery, Thick Wire Casting, 255 mm
For jewellery casters and silversmiths cutting thick sprues, casting gates, or heavy-gauge wire. These compound action cutters multiply your hand strength, delivering the force needed for a clean, low-effort cut on heavy-section metals where standard diagonal cutters would fail.
Key features
- Compound lever design significantly multiplies cutting force from hand pressure.
- Robust steel jaws with diagonal cutting edges for shearing thick material.
- Overall length of 255mm provides excellent leverage and control.
- Heavy-duty build with a black-finished head and multiple steel pivot points.
- Engineered specifically for cutting non-ferrous casting sprues and gates.
Who it's for
An essential tool for UK jewellery casting studios, silversmiths, and any workshop regularly cutting thick-gauge non-ferrous wire or rod. The compound action makes them ideal for repetitive cutting tasks, reducing hand fatigue whilst improving the quality of the cut.
