Important product features:<br />
A variety of end and side cutters are available for different<br />
wire diameters and different cutting angles. Double-action<br />
handles provide more cutting power and help absorb the<br />
shock of wire cutting, enabling better control with less<br />
fatigue. Carbide inserts may be replaced, extending the<br />
instrument’s life and value. Welded carbide jaws cannot be<br />
replaced.<br />
Useful hints in usage:<br />
Choose the appropriate cutter for the wire diameter being<br />
cut. Maximum cutting capacities are marked on each cutter<br />
and should not be surpassed. Cut in the center of edge,<br />
avoid cutting on ends of cutting edge. When cutting, protect<br />
from flying particles.<br />
