Professional Electrician Scissors
The Platinum Tools 10525C scissors are built for electrical, telephone and datacom service work. RC59 stainless steel blades deliver the hardness needed for repeated cutting and stripping tasks. An ergonomic large-ring handle sits low in the palm to reduce wrist strain during long jobs. Serrated back edges clean wire and binding posts without extra tools.
Upgrade from basic snips
Standard diagonal cutters lack the integrated stripping notches and serrated grip found on this model. The jump is worth it when you regularly strip 19 to 23 AWG conductors and cut stranded wire to 12 AWG or solid wire to 16 AWG. Technicians who only make occasional large-gauge cuts may not need the specialised blade geometry.
Sustained use behaviour
The hardened blades hold their edge through continuous cutting cycles without frequent resharpening. The large-ring handle distributes force across the palm, limiting fatigue during extended cable-prep sessions. Serrated teeth maintain grip on slick insulation, preventing slippage that slows down repetitive stripping and trimming work.

Questions about this item
What wire gauges can the 10525C cut and strip?
The scissors cut stranded wire up to 12 AWG and solid wire up to 16 AWG, and they strip insulation from 19 to 23 AWG conductors.
How should the scissors be held to get the cleanest cut?
Position the tool so the large ergonomic ring sits in the lower palm; this aligns the RC59 hardened blades for a quicker cut with less wrist strain.
When will the serrated edges on the back of the blades need attention?
The serrated surfaces are designed for cleaning wire and binding posts; they will require replacement only if the teeth become worn or damaged through heavy use.
