The Knipex End Cutting Nippers - 200mm are designed with precision cutting edges suitable for both soft and hard wire. They are also highly effective for twisting and cutting binding wire in construction and maintenance tasks. These nippers are manufactured from high-grade special tool steel which has been oil-hardened and tempered for maximum durability. The cutting edges receive additional induction hardening to ensure they withstand heavy use. The head shape provides optimised movement when tightening steel mesh knots during reinforced concrete work.
