## Long description

Diagonal pliers Knipex 72 01 160 are compact flush-cutting pliers designed for nearly flush separation of moulded plastic parts from sprues and for clean cutting of soft materials such as lead. Made from forged, oil‑hardened vanadium electric steel with a polished cutting face, these pliers combine durability and precise cutting performance in a 160 mm tool with plastic handles for comfortable handling.
Advantages
The elongated cutting edge and improved transmission ratio provide approximately 25% more cutting performance compared with standard models. The cutting faces are ground for flush cutting, and an integrated opening spring ensures quick, fatigue‑reducing repeated use. Construction from oil‑hardened vanadium electric steel offers long service life and reliable edge retention.
Suitable for

How to use
Place the cutting edges as close as possible to the material to achieve a nearly flush cut. Use steady pressure on the handles and allow the pliers' improved transmission ratio to amplify the applied force. After cutting moulded plastic components from sprues, trim any remaining nubs by repositioning the tool and making controlled short cuts. For soft materials like lead, make smooth, continuous cuts to avoid crushing.
Usage recommendations
For safe and long lasting performance, keep cutting edges clean and free of debris. Use the pliers only on materials within their intended soft‑material range and avoid cutting hardened wire or steel. Store the tool dry and apply light lubrication to the joint periodically.
