Review: This is a good set of Diagonal Cutters that electricians will find useful. - This is a good set of Diagonal Cutters that electricians will find useful. Not a lot to say really, they have slightly longer handles than a standard pair and I have found this to be more comfortable when cutting a lot of thick conductors/insulators. The VDE handles are very comfortable and the chrome finish is hard wearing and easy to keep clean. Review: Top quality - Good high quality item, essential for any electrician. ## Features - For very tough, continuous use - Enables more precise work thanks to handle sleeves closer to the joint - Redesigned handle shape for better hold - Precision cutting edges also induction-hardened (hardness approx. 64 HRC), for all wire types including piano wire ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B0001D9JE4 | | Best Sellers Rank | 80,636 in DIY & Tools ( See Top 100 in DIY & Tools ) 96 in Side-cutting Pliers | | Brand | KNIPEX | | Colour | Yellow | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 out of 5 stars 1,089 Reviews | | Cutting Width | 5.6 Centimeters | | EU Spare Part Availability Duration | 1 Years | | Global Trade Identification Number | 04003773033820 | | Grip Type | Ergonomic | | Handle Material | Alloy Steel | | Handle material | Alloy Steel | | Included Components | Components Included | | Item Dimensions L x W | 21L x 5.6W centimetres | | Item Type Name | ALICATES DE CORTE DIAGONAL | | Manufacturer | Knipex | | Material | Chromium-Vanadium Steel | | Model Number | 74 06 200 | | Part Number | 74 06 200 | | Product dimensions | 21L x 5.6W centimetres | | Set Name | Single | | Specific uses for product | Cutting | | Specification Met | VDE | | Unit Count | 1.0 count | | Usage | Cutting | ## Product Details - **Brand:** KNIPEX - **Colour:** With Multi-component Sleeves, Yellow/Red - **Cutting width:** 5.6 Centimeters - **Grip type:** Ergonomic - **Handle material:** Alloy Steel - **Item weight:** 0.31 Kilograms - **Material:** Chromium-Vanadium Steel - **Product dimensions:** 21L x 5.6W centimetres - **Specific uses for product:** Cutting - **Specification met:** VDE ## Images ![KNIPEX High Leverage Diagonal Cutter, Chrome-Plated, 200 mm, VDE, Chrome Vanadium Steel, Piano Wire, Precision Cutting, Side Cutters, 74 06 200 - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61G6N1fsMLL.jpg) ![KNIPEX High Leverage Diagonal Cutter, Chrome-Plated, 200 mm, VDE, Chrome Vanadium Steel, Piano Wire, Precision Cutting, Side Cutters, 74 06 200 - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/712iYO9fe+L.jpg) ![KNIPEX High Leverage Diagonal Cutter, Chrome-Plated, 200 mm, VDE, Chrome Vanadium Steel, Piano Wire, Precision Cutting, Side Cutters, 74 06 200 - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71UajKrxRAL.jpg) ![KNIPEX High Leverage Diagonal Cutter, Chrome-Plated, 200 mm, VDE, Chrome Vanadium Steel, Piano Wire, Precision Cutting, Side Cutters, 74 06 200 - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/817kLvbXTHL.jpg) ![KNIPEX High Leverage Diagonal Cutter, Chrome-Plated, 200 mm, VDE, Chrome Vanadium Steel, Piano Wire, Precision Cutting, Side Cutters, 74 06 200 - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71X3wDIuYhL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ This is a good set of Diagonal Cutters that electricians will find useful. *by M***I on 5 August 2017* This is a good set of Diagonal Cutters that electricians will find useful.
