Pliers STAHLWILLE 65295160 half-round with cutting edge L=160 mm, chrome-plated, reinforced guard

Half-round pliers STAHLWILLE 65295160 combine a half-round jaw profile with an integrated cutting edge in a compact 160 mm length. The chrome-plated finish and reinforced guard increase resistance to corrosion and mechanical wear, while the geometry of the jaws supports precise shaping, gripping and manipulation of wires and small components. Designed for radio and telecommunications work, these pliers offer both forming and cutting capability in one hand tool for use in confined spaces and detailed assembly tasks.

Advantages

The chrome-plated surface protects the tool from rust and simplifies cleaning after use. A reinforced guard improves durability under repeated mechanical stress and helps maintain alignment of the handles. The half-round jaw profile provides controlled bending and forming of wire or small metal parts, while the integrated cutting edge enables clean trimming close to the jaw tip. The compact 160 mm length gives better access in tight spaces and improves handling for fine work.

Suitable for

• Shaping and forming wires in radio and telecommunications assemblies
• Gripping small components during soldering or assembly
• Cutting and trimming thin wires and leads
• Work in confined spaces where a short tool is required

Key specifications

• Overall length: 160 mm
• Jaw type: half-round profile with cutting edge
• Finish: chrome-plated surface for corrosion protection
• Guard: reinforced guard for improved mechanical durability
• Primary applications: forming, gripping and cutting of wires and small parts

How to use

Hold the pliers by the handles with a comfortable grip and position the half-round jaw against the workpiece for shaping or bending. For cutting, place the wire or lead into the cutting edge as close to the jaw tip as needed and apply steady pressure until the material is severed. Use controlled movements when manipulating small components to avoid slippage; the chrome finish helps maintain smooth operation. After use, wipe the tool clean and store it in a dry place to preserve the protective plating and mechanical alignment.

Usage recommendations

Use these pliers for precision tasks on soft to medium-hard wires and small parts typical in radio and telecommunications work. Avoid cutting hardened steel or materials beyond the tool’s intended range to prevent premature wear of the cutting edge. Regularly inspect and clean the pliers, and apply light lubrication to the joint if stiffness develops.
