The certificate will show your company's details, tester information, proven test results and the equipment used to carry out the test. We therefore forge our tools from quality materials, machine them with great precision on up-to-date tool machinery, and harden them carefully using repeated heat treatment.

If you would prefer a personalised full traceable calibration certificate applied to the equipment before dispatch, then please select this option from the drop-down menu above, an additional calibration charge will apply. However, it's important to note that these shears are not suitable for cutting steel wire or hard-drawn copper conductors. For security, use of Google's reCAPTCHA service is required which is subject to the Google Privacy Policy and Terms of Use. For reasons of design, the cable shears must not be used to cut steel wire or hard drawn copper conductors. These cable shears with twin cutting edge conserve the manual force of the fitter and protect the cable insulation from crushing and from deformation.Despite some minor flaws with these shears, they are extremely well made and will withstand a lot of use and abuse over the years.

Supplied with VDE-tested insulated handles with multi-component grips, these shears give you an easy, clean cut without any damage to the cable.A certificate of conformity merely states that the equipment has been designed and produced to meet the requirements of its intended application. The range also includes special tools for cutting, stripping and crimping including tools for applications in aerospace, solar power technology and optical fiber installation. Zone D - Outer Hebrides, Orkney Isles, Shetland Isles, Isle of Man, Scilly Isles, and Channel Islands (Charges are calculated at the checkout). They probably aren’t something you’d use 100 times in a row, so it’s not that big of an issue, but if it is something you’d be doing a lot of, I’d suggest looking at alternative cutters. We are on occasion able to offer FREE calibration on certain products at their point of sale (newly purchased equipment only) please look out for the following badge on the product's page to take advantage of this free offer.

They can be easily operated with one-hand, low effort required due to high transmission ratio and new blade geometry, there is a protective guard to help stop pinching of the hands, an adjustable screw joint for tension settings. The plastic handles are a lot harder and a lot more square or rectangular, so there is less of a rounded profile to the handle when you put a bit of pressure there. You also have to put a bit more effort into cutting the same size cable compared to some other cutters, as they don’t cut as quite as easily and require a bit more pressure.You will be sent a full traceable calibration certificate produced in our laboratory and applied with your details as required. They are typical Knipex; they’re great quality and feel absolutely bulletproof” our trainer says, “they’re nice and weighty and feel robust too, and they look like they’ll take a lot of abuse. Due to the nature of their cutting edges, the cable shears must not be used to cut hard wire, however. This reduced effort substantially reduces strain for the fitter, particularly when using the cable shears for prolonged periods, e. Made from high-grade vanadium special tool steel, that has been forged and then oil-hardened, for a longer, robust working life.

These Knipex cable shears will give a nice, straight cut, with their hooked blades, which have been designed to ensure the cable is cut more efficiently from all sides. The handles of the shears are equipped with insulating multi-component grips and have been VDE tested for electrical safety. Those who use tools a lot and professionally every day expect a quality that permits simple and safe work as well as a tool that lasts for many years of hard use. Other cable shears and cutters, such as the NWS cutters,” our trainer went on to explain, “don’t feel as good quality as these Knipex shears, but they would cut through the same cable with less effort and have a more ergonomic, comfortable handle.

Unlike diagonal cutters with blades that meet at an obtuse angle and which crush cable insulation, the Knipex 95 12 200 cable shears cut with the twin cutting edge using a scissors action. These include commonly used types of pliers such as combination pliers, side cutters and water pump pliers as well as more specialized pliers for use in electrical and plumbing installation and electronics. The twin cutting edge of the Knipex 95 12 200 is special in two respects: with larger cable cross-sections there is an initial cut into the insulating sheath in the front cutter profile; the metal conductors are subsequently cut in the back cutter profile.
