Power-optimized universal pliers for gripping, holding, and cutting soft to extremely hard wires and cables. The newly designed gripping surface with three-point support ensures optimal hold of the workpiece while working. A particularly favorable lever ratio of hand force results in a 40% reduction in force required for cutting compared to standard combination pliers. The cutting edges are additionally inductively hardened to approximately 64 HRC, making them suitable for cutting piano wire as well. The Wiha DynamicJoint® ensures optimal transfer of hand force to the cutting edges. The pliers feature an extra-long cutting edge for flat and round cables. They are made from high-quality C 70 tool steel, specially treated. DIN ISO 5746.
