Diagonal pliers Cimco 101048

Cimco 101048 diagonal pliers are precision cutting tools designed for work on small components and wiring. At 132 mm overall length, these pliers combine compact dimensions with a cutting edge suitable for soft and medium-hard materials. Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) protection integrated into the tool reduces the risk of static damage when working with sensitive electronic components. The ergonomic black and red handles provide a non-slip grip that improves control and reduces hand fatigue during repetitive tasks.

Advantages

These diagonal pliers offer precise cutting geometry for accurate, clean cuts and minimum deformation of conductors. The ESD-protective construction helps maintain safe handling of electrostatically sensitive parts. Compact size and balanced weight make the tool easy to manoeuvre in tight spaces. Ergonomic handles provide comfortable operation for extended use while the hardened cutting edges retain sharpness for consistent performance.

Suitable for

• Cutting insulated and uninsulated wires in electronics assembly and repair
• Trimming component leads on printed circuit boards
• Precision cutting in model making and hobby electronics
• General electrical and small maintenance tasks requiring accurate cuts

Key specifications

• Overall length: 132 mm
• Function: diagonal cutting pliers for precision cuts
• ESD protection: designed to reduce electrostatic discharge risk
• Handle design: ergonomic black and red insulated handles for secure grip
• Cutting capability: suitable for soft and medium-hard conductors and component leads

How to use

Hold the pliers by the insulated handles with the cutting edges aligned to the workpiece. Position the wire or component lead as close as possible to the pivot to achieve a clean cut with minimal effort. Apply steady pressure to close the jaws until the material is severed. For repeated cuts, allow the hand to relax between operations to reduce fatigue. Keep the cutting edges free of debris and avoid cutting hardened materials that exceed the tool's intended capacity.

Recommendations

Use the pliers on appropriate materials and avoid applying excessive force. Maintain ESD-safe working practices when handling sensitive electronic parts: use grounded work surfaces and wrist straps as needed. Regularly inspect the cutting edges for wear and sharpen or replace the tool when cuts become less precise. Store the pliers in a dry place to prevent corrosion.
