Clean Suggestions for Cutters 10-25mm

[DuaneMHunt1976]

Basically putting some 16mm Bonding in and wonder if there is any
EASY
CHEAP cutters that can handle it.

Tho bonding is 10-16mm ..i figured if it could do 25mm (tails) then it would be there if i need it for such a thing.

Look up cable croppers as appose to cutters, you only need a small pair.

That's what I use Lee. Spot on they are, keep a good sharp edge. Half decent for dressing smaller cables such as 2.5mm if you're careful with them. They also slice through 25mm tails easily Duane. Not the cheapest but well worth the extra few quid.

knipex shears for me.

ive got the 165mm pair for upto 16mm and i use my 230mm long pair for the bigger stuff or micc

you can get them cheaper elsewhere.


(ive cut 25mm with these below)

but obviously using the bigger set is a lot easier (big set are rated for upto 70mm fine stranded)

Just ordered a pair of those, alas I've had to pay £18.99. :book:

Think Lee link is £11.30 and £2.49 P&P = £13.79 with 20% VAT (£2.758) = £16.55 (rounded up because of Vat man)

Loving those CK cutters I was chumping through 6mm T&E today, enjoying that smug feeling you get from having the right tool for the job.
Should I be concerned there's no safety info printed on them ?

you dont need shears for 6mm. you can cut 10/16mm with a decent pair of snips

No, they aren't VDE.

I have super-sexy £40 quid NWS side cutters, I find them awkward for anything over 2.5
I'm trying not to buy anything that isn't gs38 compliant.
Are you talking tin snips ?
