Pliers MEGA 28670 side-cutting 160 mm

MEGA 28670 side-cutting pliers, 160 mm overall length, are designed for cutting and precision gripping in electrical, automotive and general repair tasks. The tool combines angled cutting edges for flush cuts with elongated handles that provide additional leverage. Compact length and narrow head geometry make these pliers suitable for work in confined spaces where controlled cutting and pinching are required.

Advantages

The angled cutting edges allow clean, near-flush cuts of wires and small fasteners without excessive deformation. Elongated handles increase mechanical advantage for easier cutting of medium-gauge wires and pins. A narrow head profile improves access to tight spots and enhances precision when gripping small components. The 160 mm overall length balances portability with sufficient leverage for routine workshop and field tasks.

Suitable for

• Cutting insulated and uninsulated electrical wires
• Trimming small pins, nails and rivets
• Holding and manipulating small parts in automotive repair
• General maintenance and household repair tasks in confined spaces

Key specifications

• Overall length: 160 mm
• Type: side-cutting pliers (diagonal cutters) with angled cutting edges
• Head profile: narrow for access in tight spaces
• Handles: elongated for increased leverage
• Primary functions: cutting, precision gripping and pinching

How to use

Position the cutting edges around the wire or small fastener as close to the desired cut point as possible, keeping the tool at a slight angle for a flush cut when required. Apply steady pressure on the handles to close the jaws and complete the cut. For gripping tasks, use the narrow head to reach the component and apply controlled pressure on the handles to hold or bend the part. Inspect the cutting edges before use and avoid cutting hardened steel beyond the tool's capacity to preserve edge life.

Usage recommendations

Use the pliers for their intended tasks—cutting wires, trimming small fasteners and precision gripping. Wear appropriate eye protection when cutting. Do not use the pliers as a hammer, pry bar or for cutting hardened materials that exceed the tool's capability. Regularly clean and, if applicable, lightly lubricate the joint to maintain smooth operation and prolong service life.
