KNIPEX 95 16 165 T BK VDE Cable Shears – 165mm

KNIPEX 95 16 165 T BK VDE Cable Shears – 165mm

The KNIPEX 95 16 165 T BK VDE Cable Shears – 165mm are professional insulated cable cutters designed to produce clean, smooth cuts without crushing or deforming the cable. Their compact design and efficient cutting action allow for convenient one-handed operation, making them suitable for electrical installation and maintenance work.

The precision-ground, hardened blades are designed for cutting multi-core stranded copper and aluminium cables up to 15mm diameter or 50mm². An adjustable bolted joint with a self-retaining screw helps maintain reliable operation and allows the cutting action to be adjusted when required.

These cable shears are VDE tested for use as an insulated electrical hand tool. A protective guard helps reduce the risk of the hand slipping towards the cutting area during use.

The 95 16 165 T BK version also incorporates an insulated tether attachment point, allowing a compatible tool tether to be connected. This integrated Drop Protection System makes the shears particularly useful for professionals working at height where dropped-tool prevention measures are required.
