End-cutting pliers Knipex 64 12 115

The Knipex 64 12 115 end-cutting pliers are precision tools designed for ultra-fine cutting tasks in electronics and fine mechanics. Made from high-grade special tool steel that is forged and oil-hardened, these pliers measure 115 mm in length and weigh 91 g. The tool features comfortable blue and red handles that provide secure grip and control for cutting wires, nails and similar materials in confined spaces.

Advantages

These end-cutting pliers have a sturdy zero-backlash box joint and cutting edges that are induction-hardened to a minimum of 56 HRC for long-lasting sharpness. A low-friction double spring ensures gentle and even opening action. The polished or mirror-polished finish (finish 2) combined with a fine film of oil gives effective rust protection while avoiding the risk of chrome peeling and possible circuit faults on plated tools.

Suitable for

• Ultra-fine wire cutting in electronics and fine mechanics
• Cutting nails, pins and similar small parts in tight spaces
• Precision trimming tasks where clean end cuts are required

How to use

Position the cutting edges around the material to be cut, keeping the pliers perpendicular to the workpiece for a clean end cut. Apply steady pressure to the handles until the cut is complete. Use the low-friction double spring to open the pliers between cuts and maintain control. For electronic work, ensure the work area is stable and the part is properly supported before cutting.

Usage recommendations

For long service life, keep the cutting edges clean and free of debris, lubricate the joint occasionally with a light machine oil, and avoid cutting hardened materials beyond the tool's intended use. Store the pliers dry and wipe the polished surface with a lightly oiled cloth to maintain rust protection.
