Knipex 95 36 VDE Insulated Ratchet Action Steel Wire Cable Cutter

The Knipex 95 36 VDE Insulated Ratchet Action Cable Cutter is a professional-grade tool designed for cutting steel wire armoured cables up to 380 mm² or 45 mm diameter. This compact yet powerful cutter is ideal for electricians and contractors working with multi-core cables, handling configurations such as 4 x 95 mm² with ease. Engineered for both one-handed and two-handed operation, this cable cutter combines precision with versatility. The precision-ground blades and induction-hardened cutting edges deliver clean cuts without crushing the cable, whilst the innovative three-stage ratchet mechanism provides high leverage to reduce user effort. At just 800 g and 315 mm in length, the tool is lightweight enough for confined spaces yet robust enough for demanding applications. The VDE-tested insulation ensures safe operation on live circuits, making this an essential tool for electrical installation and maintenance work. The support area allows the tool to be safely placed down during cutting operations, and the ergonomic design reduces fatigue during extended use. Please note this cutter is not suitable for ACSR cable or wire rope applications.
