Knipex 78 71 125 Super Knips® Pliers Side Cutting 64 HRC 125mm

The Knipex 78 71 125 Super Knips is a 125 mm precision side cutting plier designed for the finest cutting work in electronics and precision mechanics. The blades are ground without a bevel and inductively hardened to approximately 64 HRC, enabling flush, ultra-precise cuts on wires from O 0.2 mm upward. A built-in wire clamp prevents cut wire sections from springing away uncontrolled.
