Knipex 78 61 140 ESD Electronic SuperKnips® XL ESD 140mm

The Knipex 78 61 140 ESD is a 140 mm Electronic SuperKnips XL flush cutter designed for ultra-precise cutting work in electronics and precision mechanics. The 15 mm longer design compared to the standard SuperKnips delivers greater stability and higher cutting performance, while ESD-compliant multi-component grip sleeves make it safe for use on electrostatic-sensitive assemblies. Precisely formed tips allow the tool to reach and cut wires lying flat against components or housings down to O 0.2 mm.

Features and benefits:

• 15 mm longer than the standard model for increased stability and higher cutting performance
• Ground cutting edges without bevel enable flush, burr-free cuts on component leads and cable ties
• Shear cut with controlled micro-cutting edge offset for long service life and ultra-precise results on even the thinnest wires
• Precisely formed tips reach and cut adjacent wires down to O 0.2 mm lying flat against housings or components
• Extremely sharp blades made from stainless, air-hardened Inox special tool steel, hardened to approx. 64 HRC
• Extremely smooth action via frictionless leg spring for fatigue-free work and fine force control on delicate assemblies
• Opening spring and opening limiter for comfortable one-handed operation

Applications:

• Trimming component leads flush on populated PCBs
• Cutting cable ties to length in tight electronic enclosures
• Precision wire cutting in fine mechanics, instrumentation, and watchmaking
• Cutting thin signal or coil wires running close to component bodies or connector housings
• ESD-sensitive rework and repair on electrostatic-discharge-sensitive assemblies
