Hard wire and pins blunt ordinary cutters quickly; these are built for that work. Carbide-tipped jaws hold a cutting edge far longer than plain steel, so production runs of stainless wire, rivet pins and other tough stock don't end at the sharpening stone. If you're matching cutters to material, our wire gauge guide covers which sizes call for this class of tool.

At 8 inches (203mm) there is genuine leverage behind each cut, and the stainless steel body with its satin finish is made for daily use. A robust lap joint pivot keeps the action reliable, whilst foam-cushioned grips take the sting out of repetitive cutting.

  • Carbide-tipped jaws maintain their cutting edge against hard wire and pins.
  • The 8-inch (203mm) length provides substantial leverage for cutting tough materials.
  • Constructed from stainless steel with a satin finish for durability.
  • Simple foam-cushioned grips provide comfort during repetitive cutting tasks.
  • Features a robust lap joint pivot for reliable, heavy-duty use.

Who it's for

An essential tool for production bench jewellers, craftspeople, and technicians who frequently work with hard materials like stainless steel wire or tough rivet pins. These cutters are built for repetitive tasks where standard steel edges would quickly fail.

Henry S. ★★★★★

I've been making rivet pins for months with cheap cutters that kept dulling, and these carbide jaws still slice through them like the first day. The foam grips are a nice touch too, no more sore spots after a long session at the bench.

Mia B. ★★★★★

These chew through 18 gauge stainless wire without any denting on the carbide jaws, which my old pair never managed. The foam grips are a small thing but my hand doesn't cramp after an hour of pin work anymore.

Kevin N. ★★★★★

I was skeptical because I've broken so many cheap cutters on steel wire, but these handled a full day of jump rings without chipping the carbide jaws. The foam grips actually made a difference for my sore hands after hours of work.
