The grips on these tools divert static electricity faster than our other static-control wire cutters, preventing buildup from electrostatic discharge (ESD) that can damage sensitive equipment. Cutters have spring-assisted jaws that open automatically when you release the handles and an adjustable jaw pivot that keeps the jaws aligned. Also known as diagonal-cutting pliers.
Angled Head—Angled-head cutters are also known as oblique-head cutters.
Tapered Head—Tapered-head cutters fit more easily in tight spaces but are less durable than oval-head cutters.
Ultra Grip—Cutters with an ultra grip have the most comfortable hold because their grip is made of hard and soft materials.
Semi-Flush—Semi-flush cutters are the most widely used for electronics assembly and produce a slightly pointed, pinched end.
Flush—Flush cutters produce a cut with virtually no pinch, creating clean connections for easy soldering. Flush-cut tools don’t last as long as semi-flush.
Reduced Head—Cutters with a reduced head thickness, also called tapered and relieved head thickness, allow close trimming in confined spaces.
Cut Profile—Cut profile refers to the amount of pinch left on the tip of the wire after it has been cut.

Flush— Flush cutters leave almost no pinch, creating clean connections for easy soldering, but they don’t last as long as pointed and semi-flush cutters.
Wire Catch—Cutters with a wire catch grip the wire after it has been cut, so it doesn’t fall off or fly into your workspace.
Static Dissipative—Static-dissipative tools divert static faster than antistatic tools.
Cut Profile—Cut profile refers to the amount of pinch left on the tip of the wire after it has been cut.

 |
| |
Oval Head | Tapered Head |

Wire with Semi-Flush Cut Profile |
Slice through nickel, titanium, and other hard wire without building up electrostatic discharge (ESD) or rusting out your tool. These wire cutters have carbide blades—the hardest, longest-lasting blades we offer. The handles drain static away from the blades, protecting sensitive equipment such as circuit boards as you cut. Both the blades and the stainless steel body resist corrosion, so they won’t rust if used or stored in damp areas.
These cutters make semi-flush cuts, producing a slightly pointed, pinched end. Generally more accurate than pointed cuts, semi-flush cuts are most widely used for electronics assembly. The jaws are spring assisted, so they open automatically when you release the handles. These wire cutters are also known as diagonal-cutting pliers.

Easy-Cut Static-Control Wire Cutters
 |
|
Tapered Head |
|
Wire with Semi-Flush Cut Profile |
Make cuts easily and comfortably while protecting sensitive equipment from static discharge. The grips drain static from the wire you’re cutting, so they’re safe to use on equipment such as circuit boards. Leverage points in the jaws give you more power than other cutters while requiring less effort and strain on your hands. For quick repeat cuts, the jaws are spring assisted to pop open after you release the handles.
The head is tapered, so they fit more easily in crowded spaces than oval-head cutters, but they dull more quickly. Also called diagonal cutting pliers, these cutters produce semi-flush cuts, which result in a slightly pointed, pinched end on your wire. This type of cut is often used for electronics assembly work. Semi-flush cutters are generally more accurate than pointed-cut tools.

Wire with Semi-Flush Cut Profile |
Cut cleanly through the thin optical fibers found in fiber optic cable, including those protected by Kevlar, without building up electrostatic discharge (ESD). Made of tungsten carbide, the blades on these cutters are the hardest, longest lasting ones in our wire cutter offering. To prevent damage to sensitive components, the grips drain static away from the blades. The spring-assisted jaws open automatically when you release the handles. Also known as diagonal-cutting pliers.

Static-Control Wire End Cutters
 |  |
Snip wire close against circuit boards and other electronic components without building up electrostatic discharge (ESD). These cutters have grips that drain static away from the blades to prevent damage to sensitive equipment. Also known as nippers, they have wide, flat jaws that make flush cuts, so you don’t nick anything beneath your wire. The box-joint design helps them maintain their jaw alignment, even after frequent use. A spring opens the jaws for quick cutting. Since the grips are plastic, they're comfortable when you're making repeat cuts and won't slip from your hands.

Static-Control Long-Nose Pliers
 |
Avoid zaps from static electricity that can damage circuits, controls, and other sensitive components. The grips on these pliers drain static, so there’s no buildup to create electrostatic discharge (ESD).
Stainless Steel—Don’t risk contaminating workpieces with rust that can form on steel tools. Stainless steel pliers resist corrosion from moisture and chemicals, but they aren’t as strong as steel pliers.
Flat Jaw—The most common style, these pliers have a broad contact area for gripping objects of various shapes.
Cushion Grip—Absorb pressure to make gripping and squeezing the handles more comfortable. They also add slip resistance for a secure hold.
