Lightweight- yet efficient shear-type cable cutters. Exceptionally strong fiberglass handles with heavy vinyl grips for comfort and slip resistance. Make a clean- even cut for ease in fitting lugs and terminals. Replaceable hook-jaw blades grab and hold cable while shear-cutting action makes clean cuts. Jaws are forged tool steel with black-oxide finish for long life. Not designed for cutting steel or ACSR. Heavy-duty pins in head serve as blade-stops. Beveled tips assure positive mating- and hinge on a rugged bolt with a pin-set nut to maintain proper blade tension.
