Side Cutters / Diagonal Pliers No name model 608850, 180 mm, hardened cutting edges

Diagonal side cutters No name model 608850, 180 mm overall length, are hand tools designed for precise cutting of wires and small metal components. The tool features hardened cutting edges to maintain sharpness and resist wear during frequent use, and ergonomically shaped handles to improve grip and control. This diagonal plier is intended for tasks that require clean, flush cuts in electrical work, electronics assembly and general maintenance in workshops.

Advantages

The hardened cutting edges provide longer-lasting sharpness and reliable cutting performance on copper, steel and soft metal wires. The 180 mm overall length balances reach and leverage, allowing controlled cuts in confined spaces while delivering sufficient cutting force. Ergonomic handles reduce hand fatigue and improve grip stability for repetitive tasks. The compact head profile enables access to tight spots and supports near-flush cuts.

Suitable for

• Cutting insulated and uninsulated wires in electrical installation and repair
• Trimming component leads and wires in electronics assembly
• General workshop tasks such as wire cutting, trimming small pins and rivets
• Maintenance tasks requiring precise, clean cuts

Key specifications

• Overall length: 180 mm
• Tool type: diagonal side cutters / diagonal pliers
• Cutting edges: hardened for improved wear resistance
• Handle: ergonomic design for improved grip and control
• Head profile: compact for access to confined spaces

How to use

Hold the pliers by the handles with the cutting edges aligned around the wire or small component to be removed. Position the cutting edges as close as necessary to the workpiece for a clean cut, then apply steady pressure to the handles until the material is severed. For insulated wire, ensure that the insulation is not pinched beyond the intended cut line. Use the shorter lever length near the head for access in tight areas and the full handle length for increased cutting force when needed.

Usage recommendations

Use the tool only for cutting materials within its intended capacity; avoid cutting hardened steel or materials beyond the cutter's designed rating to prevent edge damage. Keep cutting edges clean and free from debris, and periodically inspect for wear. Store in a dry environment and consider light lubrication on the joint to maintain smooth operation.
