KNIPEX 78 03 140 Electronic Super Knips XL cutting pliers, 140mm INOX

KNIPEX 78 03 140 Electronic Super Knips® XL cutting pliers are designed for ultra-fine cutting work where control and clean results matter, including electronics and fine mechanics. The extra-long XL pattern adds stability and cutting performance, helping you make precise cuts with less effort.

Model 78 03 140 features sharp, ground cutting edges without bevel for accurate shear cutting, plus precisely formed tips to work close to surfaces—ideal for trimming cable ties to length and cutting very thin wires neatly.

Note: Made from INOX surgical steel for durable, stainless performance.

Key Features

  • XL design (additional 15mm length): Provides greater stability and improved cutting performance for delicate, controlled work.
  • Ground cutting edges without bevel: Helps deliver clean, accurate cuts on fine wire and small components.
  • Shear cut geometry: Controlled micro cutting edge misalignment supports precise cutting of very thin wires and promotes long service life.
  • Precisely shaped tips: Designed to cut wires close to a surface from Ø 0.2mm for tidy, flush results.
  • INOX surgical steel construction: Durable stainless build suited to demanding workshop use.
  • Stainless steel rivet joint: Robust joint construction with smooth, consistent action.
  • Opening spring and limiter: Supports comfortable, repeatable cuts and reduced operator fatigue over longer tasks.
