A dependable pair of side cutters does most of the day's severing without complaint. These cut semi-flush, so wire ends come away with only a small pinch to dress back — a time-saver when a piece has dozens of trimmed joints — and the build is stout enough to take harder wires in its stride.

The head is stainless steel on a simple lap joint that keeps the action smooth and consistent, whilst curved red PVC handles give a secure, non-slip grip. At 5 inches (14cm) overall, the tool is compact enough for controlled trimming in tight assemblies at the bench.

  • Angled jaws produce a semi-flush cut, leaving a minimal pinch on the wire.
  • Stainless steel construction resists corrosion and provides rigidity for cutting harder wires.
  • Curved, non-slip red PVC handles offer a comfortable and secure grip during use.
  • Compact 5-inch (14cm) overall length allows for controlled work in tight spaces.
  • Simple lap joint pivot provides smooth, consistent jaw action.

Common questions at the bench

Will these mark soft silver wire?
Our flat-, snipe-, and round-nose pliers have polished interior jaws — they will not mark cleanly annealed precious-metal wire when used with normal grip pressure. For absolutely no-mark work on finished pieces, wrap the jaws with masking tape or nylon-jaw covers (sold separately).
Can these cut hardened wire?
Tungsten-carbide-tipped cutters in this collection handle hardened steel up to spring temper. Standard side cutters are for non-ferrous (silver, gold, copper, brass) up to half-hard. Check the product spec for the cutting capacity.
What is the difference between parallel and standard pliers?
Standard pliers pivot on a single point — the jaws scissor open and grip strongest at the tip. Parallel-action pliers stay perfectly parallel through the full opening, giving equal grip pressure across the whole jaw face. Parallel models are higher-precision (better for wire-wrapping and dead-soft annealed wire) but cost more.
Do they come spring-loaded?
Most of our bench pliers ship spring-loaded for one-handed operation. Where the spring is removable, the product description notes it. Spring tension is set for all-day comfort, not maximum grip.
