Plato 170SD Tapered Cutter
The Plato 170SD is a shear-cut plier designed for precision trimming tasks. Its tapered head allows access to confined spaces where standard cutters cannot reach. The tool measures five inches overall and is supplied new.
Shear-Cut Tapered Pliers
This cutter suits technicians and hobbyists who need clean cuts on small-gauge wire in tight assemblies. It is not intended for heavy-gauge cable, bolt cutting or high-leverage applications that require larger jaws. Buyers needing greater cutting capacity should consider larger shear or bolt-cutting tools.

Questions about this item
Will the 170SD tapered cutter fit in the same tool roll as my older 5-inch diagonal pliers?
The 170SD measures 5 inches overall, so it occupies the same slot as other 5-inch pliers in a standard roll.
How can I confirm the 170SD shear-cut jaws are aligned correctly after first use?
Close the handles fully; the tapered jaws should meet evenly along their entire length with no visible gap at the tips.
