KATSU Tools Cable Cutter Set 6" 150mm and 8" 210mm Heavy Duty Cutting Plier Forged Carbon Steel, Electrician Wire Stripper Hand Tool, for Aluminum Copper Cables 417346
Product Overview
The KATSU Tools 2-Piece Cable Cutter Set (417346) is a professional-grade electrician’s hand tool kit designed for clean, precise cutting and stripping of copper, aluminum, and plastic-sheathed multi-strand cables. Drop-forged from high-quality 55# carbon steel, this set includes two complementary sizes: a compact 6-inch (150mm) cutter and a heavy-duty 8-inch (210mm) cutter, giving trade electricians and technicians the ultimate flexibility for various wiring tasks.
Engineered with high-leverage curved cutting jaws and induction-hardened cutting edges (55–60HRC blade hardness), these pliers slice through cable conductors without crushing or fraying the wire strands. Featuring dual functional cutting positions for integrated cutting and stripping, alongside ergonomic, plastic-dipped anti-slip handles, this kit minimizes hand fatigue while delivering maximum mechanical advantage.
Features
-
2-Piece Value Combination: Includes two essential sizes—6" (150mm) for tight, intricate junction boxes and 8" (210mm) for higher leverage on thicker multi-strand cables.
-
Drop-Forged 55# Carbon Steel Construction: Heat-treated throughout with overall body hardness of 42–48HRC and induction-hardened cutting edges reaching 55–60HRC for long service life.
-
High-Leverage Shearing Jaws: Precision-ground curved blades shear cleanly through aluminum, copper, coaxial, and communication cables without distorting the wire profile.
-
6mm & 7mm Cutting Capacities: Easily shears multi-strand soft copper and aluminum cables up to 6mm diameter (with the 6" cutter) and 7mm diameter (with the 8" cutter).
-
Dual-Zone Cutting & Stripping: Formed jaw profile provides two functional positions for both shearing cable conductors and stripping outer plastic sheathing.
-
Ergonomic Dipped Anti-Slip Handles: Comfortable plastic-dipped handle sleeves provide a positive, non-slip grip and extra leverage for fatigue-free daily electrical work.

Ideal Applications
-
Electrical Installation & Wiring: Cutting and stripping copper building wires, multi-core cable runs, and consumer unit tails.
-
Telecommunications & Coaxial Work: Cleanly cutting communications lines, Ethernet cabling, and coaxial television cables.
-
Automotive & Workshop Maintenance: Trimming battery cables, wiring harness bundles, and light machinery leads.
Operating & Care Guidelines
-
Non-Insulated Handle Warning: Handle sleeves are designed for comfort and grip only; they are NOT insulated against live electrical current. Always isolate power before cutting lines.
-
Material Limitation: Designed exclusively for non-ferrous metals (copper and aluminum). Do NOT use to cut steel wire, ACSR, or hardened steel cables to avoid ruining blade edges.
-
Maintenance & Storage: Wipe blades clean after use and apply a drop of light machine oil to the pivot joint periodically to prevent surface rust.
