Cut abutting, fine wire accurately – ESD protection for electronics

Extremely sharp cutting edges made from oil-hardened, high-grade special tool steel

The Knipex Electronic Super Knips is made from special tool steel. The cutting edges are ground without bevel and hardened to approx. 64 HRC for flush cutting. Thanks to the precision tips, it is also possible to cut fine wire accurately, e.g. wire touching enclosures and components.

Work involving dexterity: low weight and smooth operation

Great dexterity is needed when working on electronic components and in precision engineering. Due to its frictionless handle spring, the Knipex Electronic Super Knips 78 61 125 ESD is so smooth-running that energy can be dispensed very precisely – with dexterity. Opening spring and opening restrictor simplify work further.

ESD protection to prevent uncontrolled electrostatic discharge

Sudden discharge resulting from electrostatic charging differences is a concern especially in electronics. The Knipex 78 61 125 ESD prevents sudden discharge. With these pliers, electrostatic energy is discharged in a constant, controlled manner via the handles. The handles are conductive – they are not insulating – and therefore permit a slow charge equalisation. With the ESD protection through dissipative discharge, the Knipex 78 61 125 ESD Electronic Super Knips satisfies the strict standards IEC TR 61 340-5, DIN EN 61 340-5 and SP Method 2472.
