An angled cutting head keeps handles up and out of the way for trimming bolts, chain, and wire against flat surfaces. Smaller than standard bolt cutters, these cutters can be used one-handed in tight spaces. They can also fit into tool pouches. However, they provide less leverage than larger cutters, so they’re best for slicing through thin bolts and wire. The jaws are riveted onto the handles and are not replaceable. Not for use on wire rope.

Cut medium steel chain and hard steel bolts, rods, screws, rivets, nails, bars, wire, and rebar. All cutters have an adjustment screw to align cutting edges. For more leverage, choose a cutter with a longer handle. Not for use on wire rope.

Cutters with aluminum handles are 30% lighter than steel-handled cutters, so they’re more comfortable for repeated cuts.

Cutters with telescoping handles let you adjust to longer lengths for more leverage, or to shorter lengths for easy transport.

The cutting head is angled 30° from the handles, so you can cut close to a surface or in a tight space without the handles getting in your way. For example, you could use these cutters to remove a bolt end that’s sticking out the side of your machinery. They’re also great for cutting chains, rods, and wire mesh. All have an adjustment screw to align the cutting edges. For more leverage, choose a longer cutter. Not for use on wire rope.

Keep your hands in a comfortable position so you can apply more force for cutting. The handles are shaped to optimize cutting capacity. Operate them with both hands, or place one handle on a flat surface and apply force to the other handle with your body weight.

Insulated handles protect against shock from accidental contact with live electrical circuits. These tools are tested to 1,000 volts to meet IEC 60900 and ASTM F1505. They minimize material distortion while cutting steel, stainless steel, and aluminum wire rope. Operate these cutters with both hands.

A small grip enables one-handed cutting. These cutters prevent crushed and frayed cable ends. Jaws are nonreplaceable.

Use the lever to make one-handed cuts with minimal material distortion. Cutter mounts to a workbench for extra stability and ease of use for repeated cuts.

Use these one-handed cutters on small-diameter aluminum and copper power and communication cable.

Spring-assisted jaws open quickly for fast cutting.

Produce clean, distortion-free cuts in cable with one-handed operation.

Push the button to cut aluminum and copper power and communication cable. Blades automatically open when the cut is complete. Head rotates 350° so you can cut in tight spots.

Cut through the strong fibers of Kevlar. These scissors have at least one serrated edge that grips material to prevent slipping.

Stainless steel blades resist corrosion.

Titanium carbide and titanium nitride (TiN) coated blades resist corrosion and have long-lasting sharpness. Titanium nitride coated blades are also nonstick and three times harder than uncoated steel blades. Chrome plating increases blade durability.

Offset handles keep your hand clear of the material as you cut on flat surfaces. Large handles are more comfortable than standard handles if you’re wearing gloves or have large hands.

Blunt-point tips are rounded to prevent snags and injury.

For extra leverage to cut through Kevlar, metal, and plastics, these scissors have long handles and short blades. The blades are plated for added durability. One blade is serrated to grip material and prevent slipping.

After each cut, the jaws spring open to make continuous cutting easy. The blades are serrated to grip material and prevent slipping.

Chrome-plated steel blades are more durable than uncoated steel blades.

With high-carbon stainless steel blades, these scissors cut through fiber-optic and electrical cables, even those that are made with Kevlar. They’re also good for cutting wire jackets and cable ties. Use the wire-cutting notch to hold your items in place, so they won’t slip as you cut them. Attach the pouch to your belt to keep these scissors close at hand.

Insulated handles protect against shock from accidental contact with live electrical circuits. These scissors are tested to 1,000 volts to meet IEC 60900 and ASTM F1505. Also known as electricians' shears, they have a notch for stripping wire.

Also known as electricians' shears, the back edge of the blade has a file to clean contacts.

Serrated blades grip material to prevent slipping.

The wire-stripping notch is for 19- and 23-gauge wire.

Nickel-plated blades have a coating for durability. Titanium-nitride (TiN) coated blades maintain their sharp cutting edge longer than uncoated stainless steel blades. They also have a nonstick surface. The stainless steel under these coatings is corrosion resistant, so your scissors won’t rust if the coating wears away.

Use optional handles to get more leverage for cutting. They also reduce hand fatigue when making repeated cuts.

Protect sensitive equipment from harmful static discharges while cutting and stripping wire. The handles on these scissors drain static away from the blades. Also called electricians’ shears, these scissors have a file on each blade to clean electrical contacts. The blades are stainless steel, which resists corrosion from water and mild chemicals.

Cut and strip wire in tight spaces with the compact tips on these scissors. The blades are nickel plated for durability, and they have rounded tips to prevent snags and injury. Handles are offset to keep your hand clear of the material as you cut on flat surfaces.

Serrated blade grips material to prevent slipping.

These small scissors have narrow, sharp tips for fine cutting and trimming.

Style E scissors maintain a sharp edge even when repeatedly sanitized or autoclaved. The blades have fine serrations to tightly grip material in delicate applications.

Stainless steel blades resist corrosion.
