Cable cutter Wiha 43666 for stripped aluminium and copper cables, single and multi-strand up to 60 mm²

The Wiha 43666 cable cutter is a manual hand tool engineered for cutting stripped aluminium and copper conductors. Designed to handle single- and multi-strand cables up to 60 mm², it is intended for precision trimming of prepared cable ends prior to termination, connector installation, or routing. The cutter features hardened cutting edges and a compact design that supports use in workshops and on-site electrical work.

Advantages

The tool delivers clean, burr-free cuts on prepared aluminium and copper conductors, reducing the need for additional finishing. Its ergonomic handle and lever geometry provide controlled cutting force for consistent results across repeated operations. Robust construction and hardened blades ensure long service life under normal professional use conditions. The compact head allows access in confined spaces common in installation and maintenance tasks.

Key specifications

How to use

Place the prepared, stripped conductor into the cutter’s cutting head so the desired end length is aligned with the blade. Squeeze the handles evenly until the cutting edges fully close and separate the conductor. Inspect the cut end for cleanliness; if necessary, make a minor re-trim to remove any small burrs. Avoid cutting insulated cable with this tool; it is intended for previously stripped conductors only. Follow normal personal protective equipment practices when working with conductors.

Recommendations

Use the cutter only on stripped aluminium or copper conductors and within the specified maximum cross-section. Do not use the tool on live conductors or on insulated cable. Regularly inspect and, if needed, professionally sharpen or replace the cutting edges to maintain clean cuts. Store the tool in a dry place to prevent corrosion and to preserve cutting performance.
