Higher cutting capacity and less effort than a high leverage diagonal cutter of the same length; possibility to reapply the cutters to cut thicker wire, also suitable for thin wire.
I have it and i love it. I mainly use it for 6mm² copper wire. Cuts through it like butter, no more strain in my hands when you compare it to a normal plier.
The extreme leverage of this pliers is so high that if you make a 200 mm model, the jaw material has to be even better. I think that there is still no construction of cutting edge material, which can support the 200 mm leverage;
I bought the TwinForce, and the cutting ability is very good, only after a few cuts, the edges were marked, I have a Bahco that has more use and the edge is perfect, honestly, I was disappointed in the quality, expected more steel German
Buen día Martin, gracias por su preferencia. Nos gustaría ponernos en contacto con usted para revisar su caso. Le agradecemos nos envíe su cuenta de correo o escribir a S.Koestermenke@Knipex.de? Saludos desde Wuppertal
I have a pair and the only thing I would change is that the head is a bit to thick so its hard to get into smaller spaces. also would be nice to open it up wider
Actually we are not planning to have a TwinForce version in VDE. We have a wide range of insulated diagonal cutters and other insulated tools especially for the electrician. (plie.rs/insulated-tools) The X-Cut is generalist in the diagonal cutters range. It is powerful and handy, has a wide opening of the jaws and cuts effortless finest wires and hardest spring steel up to 2.2mm. Its narrow head design allows access to confined area like wall outlet sockets. The TwinForce has the higher leverage ratio, so it cuts again much easier than the X-Cut. The TwinForce is the diagonal cutter with the superior cutting power thanks to its innovative and patented double joint. It allows to cut even hardest material, incl. spring wire up to 3.0mm.
KNIPEX Ordered the twinforce with opening spring. Is there going to be a compact cable shear with opening spring planned which is VDE tested and has the twinforce principle?
FoodOnCrack Dear FoodOnCrack, an insulated and VDE tested compact cable shear with opening spring with the TwinForce principle is not planned at the moment. Best regards from Germany, KNIPEX-Werk C. Gustav Putsch KG
