## Long description

The Knipex 72 11 160 diagonal pliers are designed for nearly flush cutting of molded plastic components from sprues and for precise flush cuts in soft materials such as lead. Made from forged chromium-vanadium electric steel that is oil-hardened, the tool offers a ground cutting face for close, accurate cuts and includes an opening spring for faster work cycles. The 160 mm length and plastic handles provide a balance of reach, control and comfort for precision cutting tasks.
Advantages
Ground cutting faces enable nearly flush trimming of plastic parts and clean cuts in soft materials. Forged, oil-hardened chromium-vanadium electric steel provides durability and edge retention. The integrated opening spring speeds up repetitive cutting operations, while the 160 mm size and plastic grips make the pliers easy to handle and suitable for fine, controlled cuts.

How to use
Position the cutting edges close to the sprue or material to be trimmed and apply steady pressure to make a clean, nearly flush cut. For soft metals like lead, align the material between the jaws and squeeze the handles evenly to avoid deformation. Use the opening spring to quickly reopen the pliers between cuts. Maintain a controlled grip on the plastic handles to ensure accuracy and safety during precision tasks.
Usage recommendations
For best results, inspect the cutting edges regularly and keep them clean. Do not use these diagonal pliers on hardened steel or other very hard materials, as they are designed for soft materials and plastic sprues. Store in a dry place to prevent corrosion and periodically apply light oil to the joint.
