What it offers

This offer is a two-pack of CHP-170 micro cutters with angled cutting heads and spring-return handles. The tool is intended for appropriately sized soft wire.

The key buying check

Check the wire material and maximum capacity in the tool instructions. Fine cutters should not be treated as general-purpose cutters for hardened wire or thick metal.

When to choose another option

You need to cut steel cable, hardened fasteners or material outside the stated capacity.

Start with the work you need to do and the equipment you already own. Compare the complete setup cost, including any required accessories, consumables or power source.

Where it fits in your workshop

Keep the cutter with suitable small-part tools and protect the cutting edges. Use eye protection appropriate to the task and control offcuts so small pieces do not scatter.
