Mini Bolt Cutter for Precision Tasks
The Knipex 71 12 200 SBA is a miniature bolt and chain cutter designed for cutting hard, medium and soft steel up to specific diameters. It suits technicians and hobbyists who need high cutting force in a compact hand tool for wire, chain or small fasteners.
Upgrade from Standard Diagonal Cutters
This model replaces conventional high-leverage diagonal cutters when the job demands significantly higher cutting force with less hand effort. The jump is worth it for users who regularly cut 3/16 in hard or medium steel or 1/4 in soft steel and want a beveled cutting action that multiplies hand force over 30 times.
Check Your Cutting Requirements First
Before ordering, verify that the maximum material diameters match your typical workpieces: 3/16 in for hard and medium steel, 1/4 in for soft steel. Ensure the screw adjustment mechanism and plastic grip design fit your workflow and that the unfinished blade finish is acceptable for your application.
