With a 300mm frame, the Tolsen 10241 Bolt Cutter 12 Inch fits into standard toolboxes for on-site utility. Cr-V steel jaws provide high hardness for repetitive industrial cutting tasks. It shears through metal rods, rivets, and bolts up to 5mm thick.
Key Features
- Compound Cutting Action: Dual-pivot mechanism multiplies handle force. It reduces hand fatigue during repetitive 5mm bolt shearing.
- Hardened Cr-V Jaws: Induction-treated edges reach high HRC ratings. Blades bite through wire without chipping or losing alignment.
- Adjustable Jaw Gap: Side-mounted adjustment bolts recalibrate the bite point. This fixes blade gaps after heavy mechanical wear.
- Phosphated Finish: Black chemical coating on the tool head. This layer blocks oxidation during storage in high humidity.
- 300mm Total Length: Compact 12-inch hand tool footprint. Small dimensions permit operation in restricted architectural spaces.

It handles metal diameters up to 5mm. This includes mild steel bolts, wire mesh, and rivets.
Can Tolsen 10241 cut hardened steel chains?
The 12-inch length provides insufficient leverage for thick hardened alloys. It works only on small padlocks or chains under 5mm thickness.
