11 In End Cutting Nippers

The Knipex 99 01 280 end cutting nippers are built from high-grade special tool steel for durability. Designed for professionals who need to twist and cut wire in one operation. The flush cutting edge handles hard wire up to 1.8 mm and medium-hard wire up to 2.8 mm at 61 HRC. Ergonomic red plastic handles provide a comfortable grip during extended use.

Suited for electrical and fencing work

These nippers suit electricians, fence installers and maintenance technicians who regularly cut and twist wire up to 0.11 in thick. The single-operation design speeds up repetitive tasks on site. Buyers who need ESD-safe tools for sensitive electronics assembly should look elsewhere, as this model is not ESD rated. Users requiring insulated handles for live-voltage protection will also need a different specification.

Red ergonomic plastic handles included

The supplied red plastic handles are shaped for comfort and reduce hand fatigue during long sessions. No additional accessories, spare parts or software are bundled with the tool. The handles are fixed and not interchangeable, so the grip style cannot be changed. The cutting performance relies entirely on the forged steel head and the flush edge geometry.
