Westward 10D467 Ratchet Cable Cutter
The Westward 10D467 is a 10 in ratcheting cable cutter built for electrical and data cables. Its shear cutting action and alloy steel jaws handle copper and aluminum cables up to 1,000 kcmil. The steel handles provide durability for professional use.
Suited for electricians
This tool suits users who need one-hand operation on thick electrical conductors. It is not for buyers who need a compact cutter for tight spaces or those who require insulated handles for live circuit work. The 10 in length limits access in confined panels.
Steel handles with no cushioned grip included
The handles are bare steel, so users may add tape or sleeves for comfort during repetitive cuts. No accessories or software are bundled with the cutter. The ratchet mechanism reduces effort but adds bulk compared to single-action snips.

Questions about this item
What maximum copper cable diameter does the 10 in ratchet cutter handle?
The cutter is rated for copper electrical cable up to 1,000 kcmil, so it will shear through large-gauge conductors without needing a larger tool.
Will the ratchet mechanism still engage if I keep using my older alloy-steel jaw cutters for smaller jobs?
Yes, the ratcheting jaw on this 10 in cutter operates independently, letting you switch between tools without any compatibility issues.
How can I confirm the ratchet action is functioning correctly after my first few cuts?
You should feel the handle click and hold position between squeezes, and the shear blades should advance smoothly through the cable without slipping.
