Wire Cutting Shears GEKO G01752 10" (6/48/60) – hand tool for cutting cables and wires

GEKO G01752 10" wire cutting shears are a manual hand tool designed for cutting cables and wires. With a 10-inch length and robust construction, these shears are intended for routine cable and wire maintenance tasks in workshops, on sites, and for DIY users. The compact profile and cutting blades are optimized for straightforward trimming, stripping and cutting of common electrical conductors.

Advantages

These wire cutting shears offer a simple mechanical design that delivers consistent cutting performance and user control. The 10-inch length balances reach and maneuverability, making it convenient for confined spaces while providing enough leverage for cutting medium-diameter cables. The tool’s hardened cutting edges maintain sharpness during regular use and the ergonomic handle shape improves grip and reduces hand fatigue during repetitive tasks.

Suitable for

• Cutting and trimming single-core and multi-core electrical wires
• General cable maintenance and installation work
• Workshop tasks and DIY electrical projects
• Light to medium-duty cable cutting on construction or repair sites

Key specifications

• Overall length: 10 inches (approx. 250 mm)
• Tool type: manual wire and cable cutting shears
• Blade material: hardened cutting edges for durability
• Handle: ergonomically shaped for improved grip
• Application range: suitable for common electrical wires and small cables

How to use

Position the cable between the blades at the desired cutting point and apply steady pressure to close the shears until the conductor is severed. For thicker cables, align the cut close to the hinge to increase leverage and make cutting easier. Ensure the workpiece is supported and stable before cutting, and avoid twisting the tool during the cut to maintain blade alignment and lifespan. After use, wipe the blades clean and store the shears in a dry place to prevent corrosion.

Usage recommendations

Use these shears for manual cutting of soft and medium-hard wires and cables; avoid attempting to cut very hard steel cores or heavily armoured cables that exceed the intended application. Wear appropriate hand protection and follow local electrical safety procedures when working on live or potentially live conductors.
