Diagonal pliers (or wire cutters or diagonal cutting pliers or diagonal cutters or side cutting pliers) are pliers intended for the cutting of wire (they are generally not used to grab or turn anything). The plane defined by the cutting edges of the jaws intersects the joint rivet at an angle or "on a diagonal", hence the name.
Technical Parameters:
Length | 125 mm | B (see figure) | 9 mm | |
Cutting capacity soft wire | Ø 0.2 ÷ 1.6 mm | Weight | 0.055 kg | |
Cutting capacity medium hard wire | Ø 1 mm | Style | 0 | |
A (see figure) | 13.5 mm | Head | Polished | |

Application:
- Precision pliers for ultra fine cutting work, e. g. in electronics and fine mechanics
- Ground, very sharp cutting edges without bevel
- Shear cut with controlled micro cutting edge misalignment for the most precise cutting of even the thinnest of wires and for a long service life
- Precision shaped tips cut wires resting on a board from 0.2 mm dia.
- Joint with stainless steel rivet
- Extremely smooth movement for minimum operator fatigue
- With opening spring and opening limiter
Model:
- Cutting edge hardness approx. 54 HRC
- INOX - tool steel
ESD pliers (electrostatic discharge)
electrostatic energy is discharged through the handles in a gradual and controlled manner
which protects components endangered by electrostatic discharge
in accordance with applicable standards, e.g. IEC TR 61 340-5, DIN EN 61 340-5, SP Method 2472
