These 5-inch diagonal cutters are engineered for precise wire cutting on the jeweller's bench, handling up to 12-gauge hard materials cleanly.

What it does

The precisely ground jaws, featuring integrated tungsten carbide tips, deliver consistent, burr-free cuts on tough wires, including memory wire and stainless steel up to 2.05mm. This superior hardness ensures the cutting edge retains its sharpness far longer than standard steel, reducing the need for frequent tool replacement. The robust box joint construction maintains jaw alignment and stability through extensive use, providing reliable performance.

How to use it

  • Position wire securely within the jaw tips.
  • Apply steady pressure for a clean cut.
  • Wipe clean and store in a dry place.

Who it's for

Ideal for UK jewellers, silversmiths, and serious wire-workers who regularly process harder wires. This tool replaces less durable cutters, offering a reliable solution for repetitive production tasks and detailed work where precision is paramount.

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.
