Electronic pliers for precision work

The Knipex 78 23 125 electronic pliers are engineered for fine assembly and repair tasks. They feature ground, very sharp cutting edges without a bevel for flush cuts on small components. The compact design suits electronics technicians and hobbyists handling delicate wiring. A HAWA steel construction provides durability for professional use.

Suited for flush cutting in tight spaces

These pliers suit users who need clean, flush cuts on fine wires and component leads in confined areas. The angled head improves access to densely packed circuit boards. Buyers who require heavy-duty cutting capacity for thick cables or structural materials should look at something else. The tool is not designed for high-leverage gripping or bolt turning.

Verify jaw width and overall length fit your

Before ordering, confirm that the jaw width of half an inch matches the component size you typically handle. Check that the overall length of four and seven-eighths inches provides sufficient reach for your work area. Ensure the angled head orientation matches the access angles required by your specific assemblies.

Questions about this item

Do I need a specific wire gauge to use the Knipex 78 23 125 pliers effectively?

They are designed for fine electronic wire; the ground, very sharp cutting edges without bevel are intended to cut cleanly through standard electronic gauges without crushing the conductor.

Will the 125 mm overall length let me reach components on a dense PCB alongside my larger combination pliers?

At 4 7/8 inches overall, the compact frame fits between tightly spaced parts where larger pliers cannot reach, letting you keep both tools on the bench for different tasks.

How can I verify the cutting edges are aligned correctly after I start using them?

Make a test cut on a piece of soft copper wire; the two ground edges should meet perfectly along their full length and leave a flush, burr-free end with no overlap or gap.
