Westward 24-1/2" Cable Cutter
This Westward cable cutter is a hand tool designed for cutting communication and electrical cables. It uses a shear cut action with drop forged blades to handle cables up to 1 inch in diameter. The tool measures 24-1/2 inches in overall length for leverage. It is suited for electricians and technicians performing cable preparation tasks.
Suits installers cutting single cables up to 1
The shear cut design works best on single copper or aluminium communication cables within the stated capacity. Users needing to cut steel wire, armoured cable or multiple conductors at once should look at a different tool. The long handles require two-handed operation and clearance around the work area. Buyers wanting a compact one-handed snip will find this model too large.
Check cable type and workspace before ordering
Verify that the cables you plan to cut are non-ferrous and no larger than the 1-inch shear capacity. Ensure you have enough space to operate the 24-1/2-inch handles safely. The product carries a California Proposition 65 warning for chemicals known to cause cancer and reproductive harm. Confirm the tool meets your local safety requirements.

Questions about this item
Does this 24-1/2" cable cutter need a separate power source or battery to operate?
No, the Westward 10D452 is a manual hand tool with drop-forge blades and two handles; it cuts by shear action alone and requires no electricity or batteries.
Can I keep using my existing cable-stripping knives alongside this 1" capacity cutter?
Yes, the shear-cut design handles communication and electrical cables up to 1" diameter, so it complements rather than replaces smaller strippers you already own.
How can I confirm the 10D452 is cutting cleanly after I start using it?
A clean, flat shear face on the cable end with no fraying or crushing shows the drop-forge blades are aligned and the two-handle leverage is working as intended.
