Side cutters set up for long sessions — the contoured dual-material handles spread grip pressure, and the spring-loaded action reopens the jaws after every cut, so a production run of soft-wire cuts costs your hand far less. The machined stainless steel head cuts jewellery wire cleanly, and fine-gauge component leads besides.

A durable lap joint holds the cutting edges in precise alignment cut after cut, and at 5 inches (125mm) overall the tool stays manoeuvrable for intricate work close to the piece. Beaders, wire artists, model makers and electronics hobbyists will all find it a straightforward, reliable bench cutter for non-ferrous wire. Stocked in the UK for same-day dispatch.

  • Spring-loaded action automatically reopens the jaws for rapid, repetitive work.

Customer Reviews (4.8 / 5 · 5 reviews)

Robert G. ★★★★★

Cutting hundreds of jump rings for a necklace project left my hand far less tired than usual, thanks to the spring-loaded action doing the reopening work for me. The stainless steel blades are still sharp as ever after a solid week of use.

Violet T. ★★★★★

The spring-loaded action is such a timesaver when I'm doing repetitive wire wraps—cuts down on hand fatigue noticeably. The contoured handles really do spread the pressure better than my old basic pliers.

Hannah ★★★★★

My hands don’t cramp after an hour of wrapping headpins anymore, thanks to those cushioned contoured handles. The spring-loaded jaw really does cut down on fatigue when you’re doing repetitive beading work.
