Precision wire cutting
The Knipex 68 01 160 end cutting nippers are built for tradespeople and technicians who need to sever soft and medium-hard wire flush to a surface. Their 160 mm overall length gives enough leverage for clean cuts while remaining compact enough for crowded panels or junction boxes.
Special tool steel and coated handles
Forged from special tool steel, the jaws resist deformation and hold their edge through repeated use. The plastic-coated handles supply an ergonomic grip that repels oil and grease, so the tool stays secure in industrial or automotive environments.
Low effort operation
The flush cutting geometry concentrates force at the tip, reducing the hand pressure needed for each cut. This keeps fatigue low during extended wiring jobs and limits vibration that can damage delicate conductors.
