  • Full-flush cutting edge for precise component lead trimming
  • Adjustable jaw opening gap for enhanced control and reduced fatigue
  • ESD-safe construction for protection of sensitive electronics
  • Spring-loaded grips with comfort cushioned handles
  • Environmentally friendly elastomer grip material
Technical Specifications
  • Cutting Capacity:
    • Solid Copper Wire: Up to 1.2mm diameter

How to Use

For optimal performance when working with electronic components, use alongside an Adafruit Anti-Static ESD Rework Mat and an iFixit Anti-Static Wrist Strap to maintain an ESD-safe workspace. The adjustable jaw opening can be set to your preferred width for repetitive cutting tasks, reducing hand fatigue during extended use.

Recommended Cutting Technique

  • Position the cutters perpendicular to the wire or component lead
  • Use the full-flush cutting edge for the cleanest cut
  • Adjust the jaw opening restrictor for consistent cutting depth
  • Maintain clean cuts by regularly wiping the cutting edges
