Knipex 78 71 125 ESD Electronic Super Knips® ESD 125mm

The Knipex 78 71 125 ESD is a 125 mm Electronic Super Knips precision diagonal cutter built for fine cutting work in electronics and precision mechanics. ESD-dissipative multi-component handle sleeves meet DIN EN 61 340-5, protecting electrostatic-sensitive components during use. Ground, bevel-free cutting edges with controlled micro-offset deliver an ultra-precise shear cut on wires as fine as 0.2 mm diameter.

Features and benefits:

• Precision pliers for finest cutting work in electronics and precision mechanics
• ESD-dissipative handles - electrically conductive sleeves protect electrostatic-sensitive assemblies
• Ground, very sharp cutting edges without bevel for flush, clean cuts
• Shear cut with controlled micro-cutting edge offset for long service life and ultra-precise cutting of even the thinnest wires
• Precisely formed tips cut adjacent wires down to 0.2 mm diameter
• Extremely smooth action via stainless steel rivet joint with opening spring and opening limiter for fatigue-free operation
• Integrated wire clamp prevents cut wire pieces from springing away uncontrolled

Applications:

• Trimming component leads and wire ends flush on PCBs during electronics assembly
• Cutting fine magnet wire in coil winding and transformer manufacturing
• Precision wire work on ESD-sensitive assemblies where static discharge control is required
• Cutting fiber optic cable ends in telecommunications and fiber splicing work
• Detail work in precision mechanics, instrumentation, and fine-pitch connector assembly
