The PLATO 170 Diagonal Cutting Pliers cut copper wire up to 1mm for circuit board assembly. A 10mm jaw accesses tight gaps on dense PCBs. These nippers produce flat finishes on component leads.
Key Features
- Flush Cutting Edge: 10mm jaw creates flat surfaces on component leads. It prevents sharp protrusions on soldered circuit boards.
- Automatic Spring-back: Integrated return spring opens the blades after every cut. This speeds up work during long assembly sessions.
- Carbon Steel Construction: Heat-treated metal reaches 57 HRC hardness levels. It resists deformation despite high humidity in BD workshops.
- Insulated Handles: 125mm total length with plastic-coated grips. The coating stops hands from slipping during precision work.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can PLATO 170 cut steel wire?
No, these cutters only handle soft metals like copper. Steel wire damages the 57 HRC induction-hardened blades.
Is PLATO 170 suitable for jewelry making?
Yes, the flush cut design works for soft jewelry wires. It leaves a flat end on 1mm copper or silver wire.
