Cable shears Proline 5283344 for Al/Cu up to 9 mm, hand tool

Cable shears Proline 5283344 are hand tools designed for cutting copper and aluminium wires and cables up to 9 mm in diameter. Constructed from hardened chrome-vanadium steel with a hardness of 50–60 HRC, these shears provide durable cutting performance. The 240 mm overall length and three-layer non-slip rubber handle improve grip and control during use.

Advantages

The hardened chrome-vanadium steel blades ensure long-lasting edge retention and resistance to wear. A three-layer, non-slip rubber handle offers secure handling and reduces hand fatigue. The tool’s 240 mm length gives good leverage for cutting thicker conductors up to 9 mm in diameter, suitable for both aluminium and copper materials.

Suitable for

• Cutting copper wires and cables
• Cutting aluminium wires and cables
• General electrical and network installation work

How to use

Position the cable between the blades close to the shear’s head, apply steady pressure on the handles and complete the cut in a single controlled motion when possible. For thicker cables, make sure to align the conductor centrally in the cutting zone and use the full handle travel to achieve a clean cut. After cutting, check the blade edges for damage and clean any debris from the blades and pivot area.

Usage recommendations

Use appropriate personal protective equipment such as safety glasses and gloves. Do not use the shears on live electrical conductors. Store the tool dry and apply light lubricant to the pivot periodically to maintain smooth operation.
