The Klein Tools cable cutter is designed for electricians and communications installers who need reliable one-hand cutting in tight spaces, handling up to 4/0 aluminium, 2/0 soft copper, and 100-pair 24 AWG communications cable in a single, controlled shearing action. Through-hardened forged steel jaws — not case-hardened — deliver longer-lasting cutting surfaces, while bevelled jaw tips ensure proper mating and shearing action that protects leading edges over thousands of cuts. Its hot-riveted joint keeps the action smooth and wobble-free, and the compact profile fits in most tool pouches for easy carry between panel boards and pull boxes.
