It is therefore perfect for work on industrial plants, the building connection in residential buildings or on large, stranded earthing cables.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"FT\"\u003eThanks to several features, it can even be used to cut cables that can otherwise only be cut with ratchet cable cutters or much larger two-handed cable shears (such as KNIPEX 95 12 500): long handles, highly geared joint and a nibbling point.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"FT\"\u003eThe long handles with grips close to the joint allow comfortable one-handed use and, if required, powerful two-handed use; the bolted joint is smooth-running and transmits maximum force thanks to its optimised transmission ratio; the graduations in the cutting edge always keep small and large cables close to the joint for the lowest possible cutting forces.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"premiuminhalt_subtitel\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe strikingly shaped cutting edges deserve a second, closer look:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"FT\"\u003eA small area at the front ends serves as a nibbling point, comparable to a sheet metal nibbler. This can be used to cut large fine-stranded and stranded cables such as 5x10 mm² in several small steps. The single-sided spike on one of the cutting edges serves as a stop so that the cable shears only grip as much material as can still be cut easily when nibbling large diameters. This allows even larger cables to be cut in several small steps, which would otherwise only be possible with a ratchet cable cutter or two-handed cable shears - which you can't always have to hand due to their size and weight.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"FT\"\u003eSpeaking of which: even in comparison with a ratchet cable cutter, the StepCut XL performs surprisingly well. For example, to cut a hefty 50 mm² multi-wire cable, three cutting movements with a force of around 500 N (Newtons, the physical unit for force) each are usually sufficient with the stepped cutting edges. That is a compressive force that many craftsmen can apply with just one hand! With a ratchet cable cutter, tradespeople only have to apply around 70 N - but up to 15 times for each ratchet stroke. In other words, the StepCut XL usually completes a cutting process like the one in this example much faster! Of course: For very large cables with more than 120 mm², very large two-handed cable shears such as the 95 12 200 or cable cutters with a ratchet principle have the advantage. Of the latter, even small models such as the 95 31 250 from KNIPEX separate stranded copper cables up to 240 mm² more easily and more quickly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"FT\"\u003eThis makes the StepCut XL the perfect shears for all cables for which a ratchet cable cutter is too unwieldy or slow, but which are too difficult to cut with conventional one-handed cable shears. It is therefore aimed at all electrical professionals, whether in construction, recycling or industry.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eFeatures\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"product--variation-field--variation_field_product_desc_highlighted__30052 field field--name-field-product-desc-highlighted field--type-text-long field--label-hidden field__items\"\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"field__item\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHigh-leverage joint, long handles and optimised cutting edges: noticeably easier cutting than with compact cable shears\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"field__item\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLarge cutting capacity: cuts solid copper or aluminium cables up to 35 mm², stranded cables up to 70 mm²and fine stranded cables up to 120 mm²\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"field__item\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDual cutting areas: Stepped cutting edge holds small and larger cables close to the joint during the cut;
