KNIPEX StepCut® XL 95 11 225 // Cable shears for easier cutting of multi-conductor cables

You think you've seen it all when it comes to pliers? You're wrong: The new KNIPEX StepCut® XL 95 11 225 can do more than you would expect from ‘normal’ cable shears of this size. So what can it do? It cuts cables that take unnecessarily long to cut with ratchet cable cutters but are too difficult to cut with smaller single-handed cable shears: like NYM-J 5x6 mm² (or NM-B 10/4), or stranded single conductors made of copper or aluminum up to 70 mm² (AWG 2/0) – with one or both hands, depending on your own strength. Also note the cutting edge geometry. This is designed so that small and large cables are always cut as close as possible to the joint and therefore as easily as possible. And the front area is a new type of ‘nibbling point’ for cable cutters. You can use it to ‘nibble’ your way through cables of almost any size piece by piece; similar to a sheet metal nibbler, but for electrical conductors (without steel reinforcement). Also cool: You can use it to cut smaller cables such as NYM-J 3x1.5 very quickly in one go – without having to open the pliers wide to insert them.
