For use where even minor magnetism can cause major damage, these wire cutters are made of titanium, so they’re completely nonmagnetic. They’re often used on sensitive aerospace and medical equipment such as electromagnetic motors and MRI machines. Because there's no magnetism tugging on these tools, they're steady for precise cuts.

Titanium has excellent rust resistance, withstanding exposure to salt water and chemicals even better than stainless steel. It’s also lightweight, so you can maneuver these cutters easily without tiring your arm. While light, they’re still strong, cutting through aluminum, copper, and low-carbon steel wire. Titanium is softer than steel, though, so they won’t cut through the hardest wires, such as spring steel.

These cutters have a pointed cut profile, producing a deeply pointed, pinched end on cut wire. Use them in electrical and general applications. They’re also known as diagonal-cutting pliers.
