The Knipex Two Handed Short Construction Cable Shears are professional-grade cutting tools designed for electricians and contractors working with copper and aluminium cables. This compact model measures just 500mm in length, offering enhanced manoeuvrability in confined spaces whilst maintaining exceptional cutting performance through its high-leverage design. Built with precision-ground, hardened blades, these cable shears deliver clean, smooth cuts without crushing or deforming the cable. The optimised blade geometry combined with a favourable lever ratio significantly reduces the hand force required, minimising user fatigue during repetitive cutting tasks. The adjustable bolted joint ensures consistent performance and can be maintained for long-term reliability. Suitable for cutting single conductors and multiple stranded cables in copper and aluminium, the shears handle cables up to 150mm² or 27mm diameter (AWG 6/0). An integrated pinch guard provides essential hand protection during operation, preventing fingers from being trapped between the handles. Please note these shears are not designed for steel wire or wire ropes.
