I think it is a very useful As advertised, it works very well. The performance of this application has been impressive pm both individual and bundles of wires that I have used for the wiring assignment I have. You should definitely check it out. We lowered the star rating by one because it is horribly overpriced. The same thing can cost up to four times as much as its competitor. However, now that I have owned it for a while, I am glad I did!.
Since Klein has outsourced production, they aren’t what they used to be. Still, they're a better value than most. You know you're getting a product that'll last, but not at the same level of quality or price that you'd have to pay for Its spring should be adjusted for the knipex if you use it each day. More likely than not, this is one of the tools you use 2 If you're buying Greenlees or these ones, just buy them 3 weeks out of six months.
I couldn't get a perfect perpendicular cut, but this one cuts smoothly and bites hard. I have cut a lot of 500, and it still cuts even when not perfectly perpendicular.
I like the cutters a lot. Manholes that are too tight for clamp cutters or even can't be reached can be used with these tools. They are, in my opinion, well worth their price.
My hands and wrists are no longer in pain as a result of using this device. This is a great tool for cutting 3/4" cables, and I can't express how grateful I am for my purchase.
NOTHING beats having the right tool for the job. (Well, at least almost anything - If you don't want to do it yourself, you can always ask somebody else. I believe people who weigh between 120 and 160 lbs could use these cutters if they are motivated. I have tested them in tight spaces, or when cutting a lot of wire, or when using a vice like grip, etc. The ratchet step size is small as a result of the apparent mechanical advantage, meaning that these units do not perform as fast as the big battery-operated models. In any case, you can easily squeeze the blades down to the surface of the wire, so the only thing that takes long is the actual cutting. The whole thing will only take a few seconds depending on how fast and large you are. This took me a little over an hour During several cuts, only a very thin and small dust of copper remains on blades after material is cut. After several cuts, there is a faint touch of copper on blade surfaces when only a magnifying glass is used. A few notes I am not someone who performs this professionally, in case there are those who think that I am. (I graduated from MIT and am interested in engineering and science things. While a graduate student, I wired up large industrial equipment and VERY high voltage high power gear. Those who do this for a living deserve a lot of respect- Getting it right on the first try is the key to a fast and seamless job. Cutting heavy wires with the wrong/too small of tools is both inefficient and can lead to poor wire terminations. There can be some danger in such situations. For the repairs of a massively insufficient home grounding line, and two breaker panels with insufficient service entrance wiring (SER), I bought this tool so that I could make the repairs As a result, I cannot speak directly to long-term durability, but I can say that it is a very solid tool and can obviously cut 600 MCM without saturating. I love it!.
For the lineman, this is a must.
As a result of the ratcheting mechanism not working, I had to return this tool. A Klein tool may not be able to do this. Klein, however, should not have been defective for a cost of $300, but the return itself went very well.
