These cutters help reduce hand fatigue when you’re snipping through thick, hard metal or making repeated cuts. All have an adjustment screw to align cutting edges. For more leverage, choose cutters with longer handles. Not for use on wire rope.

An angled cutting head keeps handles up and out of the way for trimming bolts, chain, and wire against flat surfaces. Smaller than standard bolt cutters, these cutters can be used one-handed in tight spaces. They can also fit into tool pouches. However, they provide less leverage than larger cutters, so they’re best for slicing through thin bolts and wire. The jaws are riveted onto the handles and are not replaceable. Not for use on wire rope.
