Cutting Side Nippers NETRACK 101-50 – precision diagonal cutters, NETRACK model 10150

NETRACK 101-50 precision diagonal cutters are compact side nippers engineered for accurate, controlled cutting in electronics, electrical and fine mechanical work. The tool features a slim profile and sharp cutting edges that allow close, flush cuts of wires, component leads and small plastic parts. Designed for tasks that require precision rather than heavy-duty cutting, these diagonal cutters are suitable for use at workbenches, in repair stations and during assembly or prototyping processes.

Advantages

The NETRACK 101-50 delivers precise side cutting with minimal deformation of the cut material, enabling clean trims of copper and enamelled wires as well as component leads. Its compact size improves access in confined spaces and offers comfortable control for repeatable cuts. Hardened cutting edges retain sharpness for longer service life while the balanced handles promote steady hand positioning during fine tasks.

Suitable for

• Cutting and trimming component leads on printed circuit boards
• Stripping and trimming small wires in electronics and electrical assemblies
• Precision repair, assembly and prototyping work
• Removing cable ties and small plastic parts where controlled cuts are required

Key specifications

• Tool type: precision diagonal side cutters for fine mechanical and electronic work
• Cutting action: side/flush cutting suitable for close trims
• Size and form factor: compact profile for use in tight spaces and on crowded PCBs
• Cutting edge: hardened, sharp edges designed for small-diameter conductors and component leads
• Handle: ergonomically balanced handles for controlled, repeatable cuts

How to use

Place the wire or component lead between the cutting edges near the joint, keeping the material as close to the pivot as practical for maximum leverage and a clean cut. Apply steady pressure on the handles until the cutting edges close fully through the material. For repeatable accuracy, align the item to be cut against a reference point on the workpiece or fixture before each cut. Avoid using the tool on hardened steel, bolts or materials beyond its intended small-diameter capacity to prevent edge damage.

Usage recommendations

Maintain the tool by keeping cutting edges clean and free of solder or debris; occasional sharpening or professional regrind will extend service life. Use protective eyewear when cutting wire and store the cutters in a dry place to prevent corrosion.
