About This Product

This compact Ratcheting Cable Cutter allows for one-handed use of the ratcheting mechanism, so the other hand can position the cable to ensure proper cut. High-Leverage ratchet mechanism cuts copper, aluminum and communication cables leaving no burrs or sharp edges. The patented two-step ratchet mechanism requires fewer strokes per cut. A quick-release lever opens blades easily in every cutting position so the cable can be removed before the completion of the cut. Steel cutting blades are hardened for lasting strength and sharpness. Plastic covered handles with hand guards provide a comfortable, firm grip.
