Bolt cutter pliers Knipex 71 32 200 T

The Knipex 71 32 200 T bolt cutter pliers are compact cutting pliers designed for precise cutting of soft and medium-hard materials. Manufactured from chromium-vanadium steel, the tool provides durability and consistent cutting performance. With an overall length of 200 mm and a maximum pipe diameter cutting capacity of 6 mm, these pliers combine portability with effective leverage for controlled cuts in tight workspaces.

Advantages

The chromium-vanadium steel construction ensures wear resistance and a long service life while maintaining the necessary hardness for clean cuts. The compact 200 mm length and optimized handle geometry deliver good leverage and maneuverability in confined areas. Sharpened cutting edges are suitable for cutting small-diameter pipes, wires and similar materials with precise results and minimal deformation of the workpiece.

Suitable for

• Cutting small metal pipes and tubing up to 6 mm diameter
• Trimming wires and rod ends in electrical and mechanical work
• Precision cutting tasks in plumbing, HVAC and installation work
• Use in confined spaces where a compact cutter is required

Key specifications

• Material: chromium-vanadium steel
• Overall length: 200 mm
• Width: 55 mm
• Height: 23 mm
• Maximum cutting capacity (pipe diameter): 6 mm
• Tool type: bolt cutter pliers / compact cutting pliers

How to use

Position the cutting edges around the workpiece so that the material to be cut is aligned with the centre of the jaws. Apply steady, even pressure on the handles until the cut is completed. For repetitive cuts, release and re-position the tool between operations to maintain control and protect the cutting edges. After use, clean off debris and store the pliers in a dry place to prevent corrosion and preserve cutting performance.

Usage recommendations

Use the pliers only on materials within the stated cutting capacity. Do not attempt to cut hardened steel or materials exceeding the maximum diameter, as this can damage the cutting edges. Periodically inspect the pliers for wear or damage and maintain a clean, lightly oiled pivot to ensure smooth operation.
