- Durable, load-optimised design with backlash-free box joint
- High, slim sleeves for fine and comfortable gripping between thumb and index finger
- Less physical effort due to very high transmission ratio
- Load-optimised for a more direct feel when working
- Low-friction double spring for smooth and even opening
- The mirror polish in combination with a fine oil film provides rust protection - no circuit faults caused by peeling chrome from plated tools
- Cutters additionally laser hardened, cutter hardness at least 62 HRC
- Round head, with small bevel and lead catcher - no uncontrolled loss of cut wire ends
Cutting capacities medium hard wire (diameter)
Cutting capacities hard wire (diameter)
Precise cutting of fine wires and cables – even soft wires up to Ø1.6 mm
Small dimensions – large cutting capacity
Compared to diagonal cutters for domestic installations, the Knipex 77 12 115 ESD electronics diagonal cutter is a real precision tool. With a length of 115 mm and weighing 80 g, it is extremely compact and lightweight, making it ideal for confined spaces, e.g. for PCBs or precision equipment. Cutting edge hardness approx. 62 HRC lets it cut soft wire up to Ø1.6 mm and hard wire up to Ø0.6 mm. The short pliers head offers strong leverage. This makes it perfect for power delivery on the cutting edges and precisely controlling manual force.
Zero-backlash box joint. High cut quality and durability
The Knipex 77 12 115 ESD electronics diagonal cutter has a box joint. The inside of both pliers handles is guided. This prevents tilting. Rivets only undergo shearing stress. Result: higher-quality cutting operations, long service life. The tool is oil-hardened, while the cutting edges are induction-hardened to approx. 62 HRC.
ESD protection against electrostatic discharges; corrosion protection
The Knipex 77 12 115 ESD electronics diagonal cutter protects electronic components from damage as sudden electrostatic discharges are avoided. Electrostatic energy is discharged in a controlled way via the handles. Instead of chrome plating, the meticulously crafted electronics diagonal cutter has a mirror polish.
Compact diagonal cutters with ESD protection for fine cutting, with wire catcher

Electronics diagonal cutters from Knipex – for electronics & precision equipment
Knipex offers a comprehensive range of box joint electronics diagonal cutters for applications in electronics and precision equipment. They are characterised by high precision and functionality – plus the proverbial Knipex durability.
Professionals who use tools a lot every day expect a quality that enables them to work easily and safely and that can withstand many years of tough service. Box joint Knipex electronics diagonal cutter are forged from special quality special tool steel and are carefully processed and gently heat-treated.
ESD safety
Electrostatic energy is dissipated through the handles; corresponds to IEC TR 61 340-5, DIN EN 61 340-5, SP Method 2472 for example
A wire catcher prevents faults
The integrated wire catcher prevents wire offcuts from escaping. This prevents faults, e.g. in wiring circuits.
