Cable and Insulation Cutters NEO tools 01-511, 140 mm cutting length

NEO tools Cable and Insulation Cutters 01-511 feature a compact 140 mm jaw length designed for precise cutting of electrical, telecom and networking cables. This handheld tool combines hardened cutting edges with a controlled jaw profile to deliver clean cuts and reliable insulation stripping in installation and repair tasks. Its size and cutting geometry make it suitable for both domestic maintenance and professional fieldwork where accuracy and tool durability are required.

Advantages

The hardened cutting edges retain sharpness during repeated use and reduce the need for frequent sharpening. The 140 mm jaw length provides a balance between access to confined spaces and sufficient bite for multi-core and single-core cables. The ergonomic handle design ensures secure grip and better control during repetitive cutting and stripping operations, while the compact tool length supports portability and easy storage in a technician's toolkit.

Suitable for

• Cutting and preparing electrical installation cables
• Stripping insulation from telecom and networking cables
• Field maintenance and repair work in residential and commercial settings
• On-site cable preparation for installers and electricians

Key specifications

• Jaw length: 140 mm for precise cutting and access in confined areas
• Cutting type: handheld cutters suitable for electrical and communication cables
• Blade material: hardened cutting edges for extended wear resistance
• Handle: ergonomic design for improved grip and control
• Typical applications: cable cutting and insulation stripping for installation and repair

How to use

Position the cable between the cutting jaws at the required cutting point and apply steady pressure to make a clean cut. For insulation stripping, place the insulation under the jaw or cutting notch, apply gentle pressure and rotate or pull the tool along the conductor to remove the sheath without damaging the conductor. Inspect the cut and stripped conductor visually to ensure there is no damage to wire strands before making electrical connections. Use appropriate personal protective equipment and follow electrical safety procedures while working on live circuits — ideally perform cutting on de-energized cables.

Usage recommendations

Keep the tool clean and dry after use and store in a toolbox or pouch to protect the cutting edges. Avoid cutting materials outside the intended range such as hardened steel or piano wire. Periodically inspect cutting edges for wear; sharpen or replace the tool if cuts become uneven. Use the tool with insulated handles when working near live conductors and follow local safety standards for electrical work.
