Side Cutter Pliers — Polished Stainless Steel, 5.5 Inch, Shaped Handles, Wire Work
Side cutters built for production runs — the shaped handles carry finger scallops that spread grip pressure, so the hundredth cut of the day lands as cleanly as the first. The jaws are angled for close cuts against the work, which suits trimming wire wraps, findings and component leads tight to the piece.
Construction is polished stainless steel throughout: a box joint that holds the cutting edges in alignment, a double-leaf spring that reopens the handles between cuts, and all-metal handles that wipe clean and never shed a cushion grip. Makers who prefer the direct feel and durability of bare metal over padded grips will be at home with them. Overall length is 5.5" (140mm).
