They minimize material distortion while cutting steel, stainless steel, and aluminum wire rope. Operate these cutters with both hands.
One-Handed Wire Rope Cutters
A small grip enables one-handed cutting. These cutters prevent crushed and frayed cable ends. Jaws are nonreplaceable.
Hammer-Driven Large-Diameter Wire Rope Cutters
With a quick hammer blow, these cutters make cuts without squeezing or flattening wire. For best results, use with Wire Rope Cutting Bands.
