The Gedore 1550993 cable cutter is a compact, precision tool designed for clean cutting of cables and wires. Weighing 267 g, it combines a good lever action with induction-hardened cutting edges for long-lasting sharpness. The tool is made from Gedore special hardened and tempered steel with a chrome-plated finish and features insulated handles tested to VDE standards for use near live conductors up to 1000 V (EN 60900 / IEC 60900).

Advantages

Induction-hardened precision cutting edges with a hardness of 63–65 HRC provide durable, clean cuts. The lever-action design reduces hand effort during cutting. Chrome-plated special hardened and tempered Gedore steel ensures corrosion resistance and structural durability. VDE-insulated sleeves on the handles offer protection for electrical work up to 1000 V according to EN 60900 / IEC 60900. Lightweight construction (267 g) improves portability and ease of use.

Key specifications

How to use

Place the cable or wire between the cutting edges close to the head, align for a straight cut and operate the handles using steady pressure to activate the lever action. For best results with thicker or harder wires, make sure the material falls within the specified maximum cutting capacity (Ø 1.8–2.0 mm) or consult the manufacturer's table for values on hard wire/piano wire. After use, wipe the tool clean and store in a dry place to protect the chrome finish and cutting edges.

Recommendations

Do not attempt to cut materials that exceed the specified maximum capacity or are not intended for insulated cutters. Inspect the insulation on the handles regularly for damage before working on live circuits and follow local safety regulations when performing electrical tasks.
