Safety Hold End Cutters with Gold-Plated Handles for Flush Wire Cutting, 13 cm
These end cutters are designed for making clean, flush cuts on soft wire, with the added benefit of a safety-hold mechanism. The specialised jaw cuts the wire and simultaneously grips the cut-off piece, preventing it from flying away and getting lost or causing injury. This is invaluable when working on intricate assemblies or in clean environments.
Manufactured from hardened stainless steel with a polished finish, the tool is resistant to corrosion and can be fully sterilised in an autoclave. The 13 cm body and ergonomic, gold-plated handles provide comfort and control for both left and right-handed users. This tool is CE marked and sourced from an ISO 9001 certified manufacturer.
Common applications include:
- Trimming component legs on printed circuit boards.
- Cutting fine wire ends flush in jewellery and watch repair.
- Building intricate scale models with brass or copper wire.
