The versatile, chrome-plated diagonal cutters, 160 mm long
Optimised for the craftsman’s everyday work and insulated up to 1000 V
Long appreciated by many craftsmen – the insulated Knipex diagonal cutters with a length of 160 mm are a classic in the Knipex range.
From the shape of the head through to the polish and hardness of the cutting edges, it is customised for the diverse cutting tasks in the day-to-day work of electricians, mechatronics engineers and electronics engineers.
The Knipex 70 06 160 diagonal cutters are insulated using multi-component grips in accordance with the insulation standard IEC 60900 / DIN EN 60900.
Universal cutting capacity
With their cutting capacities of up to Ø 2.0 mm on hard wire (e.g. wire rope fibre) and up to Ø 4.0 mm on soft wire (e.g. copper wire), the Knipex 70 06 160 diagonal cutters offer a broad range of applications.
The long cutting edges make them ideal for cutting cable. The extremely carefully and precisely machined cutting edges enable even very fine stranded wire to be cut accurately – up to the tips of the cutting edges. This is a great advantage where space is restricted, for example when shortening fine stranded wires in junction boxes and distribution boxes.
Tough and durable
We forge the Knipex diagonal cutters from vanadium electric steel and make them strong by warming them and then quenching them in oil. To achieve a permanently accurate cut we additionally use high-frequency current to give the cutters a hardness of approx. 62 HRC.
Chrome plating is effective rust protection that pays off during outdoor use, for example. Thanks to the chrome plating, the diagonal cutters are particularly easy to clean.
