Knipex 70 01 140 Diagonal Cutter 140mm Black 62HRC

The Knipex 70 01 140 is a 140 mm diagonal cutter designed for precision cutting of soft, medium-hard, and hard wire in professional electrical and mechanical applications. Forged from vanadium electric steel with induction-hardened cutting edges at approximately 61 HRC, it delivers a clean, accurate cut even at the very tips of the blades. The slim head profile and plastic-coated handles make it well suited for daily use in confined workspaces.
