Knipex 95 11 225 SBA StepCut® XL Cable Shears 9"

High-leverage joint, long handles and optimized cutting edges for an easier cut than with compact cable shears. Cuts solid copper or aluminum cables up to 2 AWG, stranded cables up to 2/0 AWG and fine stranded cables up to 4/0 AWG. Dual cutting areas: step cutting edges position cables close to the joint and the front cutting edge is used for the gradual cutting ("nibbling") of larger cables. Easy one- or two-handed operation with minimal handle opening for large cable diameters. Slim head for better accessibility. Not suitable for steel-reinforced cables, e.g. ACSR. Adjustable, high-leverage bolted joint provides precise and smooth cutting. Pinch guard prevents operators' fingers being pinched. Laser-hardened cutting edges (approx. 56 HRC). High-grade special tool steel; forged; oil-hardened.
