Description
For fine cutting work in electronics and fine mechanics. Sturdy, zero-backlash box joint. Low friction double spring for gentle and even opening. The mirror polish together with a fine film of oil offer effective rust protection - no circuit faults caused by peeling chrome from plated tools. Cutting edges induction hardened (approx. 62 HRC). Cutting capacity - up to 1/16" for soft wire, 3/64" for medium and up to 1/64" for hard wire. Semi-flush with small bevel. Lead catcher, no uncontrolled loss of cut wire ends. ESD (electrostatic discharge) handles discharge electrostatic energy through the handles in a gradual and controlled manner which protects components endangered by electrostatic discharge. Ball bearing steel; laser-hardened cutting edges. Handles with multi-component covers. Small bevel. Semi-flush cut.
