These powerful cutters use a nipping action to cut extra-hard wire with ease. They’re also known as diagonal-cutting pliers.
Cutters with an adjustable-force joint let you add power with the push of a button. When the button is pressed in, they require 40% less effort to make cuts than standard cutters of the same length.
Spring-assisted cutters open automatically when you release the handles.

Precision Wire End Cutters

Make accurate, flush cuts through small wire with these tweezer-style cutters. The smallest of our wire end cutters, they cut close to the surface with such high precision that they’re often used by jewelers to make watch repairs.
Steel cutters are harder than stainless steel ones, so the tips stay sharp longer. However, steel is more likely to corrode in wet environments than stainless steel.
Stainless steel cutters are corrosion resistant for use in damp or humid environments. Cutters with a tungsten carbide tip stay sharp longer than any other precision wire end cutters. However, the tip is brittle and can chip from accidental impact.
Diamond-coated steel cutters snip through the hardest metals and stay sharp longer than uncoated steel or stainless steel cutters. They’re also more corrosion resistant than either and are chemically inert.
Cutters with 3/16 in. tips won’t block your view of your wire, helping you make an accurate cut. They’re often used under microscopes or in other small spaces.
