Diagonal pliers Cimco 10 0574 Shock resistant PU plastic Steel 160 mm

The Cimco 10 0574 diagonal pliers are 160 mm cutting tools designed for precise cutting and gripping in electrical and mechanical work. Manufactured from high-alloy tool steels with shock-resistant PU plastic handle sleeves, these diagonal pliers combine durable material processing, induction-hardened cutting edges and an ergonomic two-component handle for secure, comfortable use. The Diamant-Plus production and testing process includes robot-supported manufacturing and individual dielectric strength testing of the insulating coating, and the pliers comply with IEC 60900:2004 and VDE requirements for 1000 V protective insulation.

Advantages

High-alloy steels and oil-bath hardening deliver long-lasting durability; induction-hardened precision blades (approx. 64 HRC) provide clean cuts even on hard wires including piano wire. The joint is virtually clearance-free to ensure smooth opening and closing. Conical, uniformly serrated gripping surfaces improve handling of common workpieces. Two-component PU handles offer non-slip grip, good skin tolerance and resistance to sweat, salt water, oil, many chemicals and UV exposure. A 10-year durability guarantee covers material and workmanship defects for the Diamant-Plus range.

Suitable for

• Precision cutting of electrical and mechanical wires
• Cutting hard wires including piano wire

How to use

Use the Cimco 10 0574 diagonal pliers to cut or trim wires by positioning the wire close to the cutting edge and applying steady pressure on the handles until a clean cut is achieved. For gripping tasks, use the conical serrated faces to hold workpieces securely. Observe the tool’s 160 mm size and avoid using it for prying or as a hammer. For insulated work, ensure the insulation integrity before using near live circuits and follow accepted electrical safety procedures.

Usage recommendations

Inspect the cutting edges and insulation before use and replace the tool if damage or excessive wear is visible. Only use the pliers within their specified limits: do not use on materials or in applications beyond the induction-hardened blades’ rating or on live parts without verifying proper insulation and adherence to VDE safety guidelines.
