GEDORE Power Side Cutter 8316-160 JC, 160 mm, 2-Component Handle, Induction-Hardened Cutting Edges, DIN ISO 5749 6744510

Built for heavy-duty cutting tasks, the GEDORE 8316-160 JC power side cutter delivers exceptional leverage and durability in a compact 160 mm frame. Unlike standard diagonal pliers, its precision-ground, induction-hardened cutting edges slice through hard wire up to 2.0 mm, medium-hard wire up to 3.0 mm, and soft wire up to 4.0 mm with minimal effort. The drop-forged, oil-hardened special tool steel body ensures long-lasting performance, while the phosphated surface and polished head resist corrosion and wear. The ergonomic 2-component handle provides a secure, comfortable grip, reducing hand fatigue during extended use. Fully compliant with DIN ISO 5749, this cutter is a reliable choice for professionals in electrical, mechanical, and industrial applications.
