ESD-Safe Precision Cutting

The Knipex 79 32 125 ESD is a precision diagonal cutting plier built for electronics work where static-sensitive components require ESD-safe handling. Its pointed head with a very small bevel allows clean cuts in confined spaces on circuit boards and wiring looms. The spring-return jaw opening reduces repetitive strain during extended assembly or rework sessions. Deluxe cushion grips provide comfort and control for fine manipulation tasks.

Ideal for electronics technicians and hobbyists

Technicians assembling or repairing static-sensitive PCBs will appreciate the ESD-safe construction and precise pointed jaws. The tool is not suited for cutting hard steel beyond 1/64 in diameter or for applications requiring insulated handles for live electrical work. Users needing a larger jaw capacity or heavy-duty cutting force should consider other plier types. The fixed 0-degree head offset limits access in some angled orientations.

Fits compact toolkits and bench setups

At 5 in overall length with a 1/2 in jaw length and width, the plier occupies minimal space in a technician's pouch or bench organiser. The spring-return mechanism keeps the jaws open without manual effort, freeing a finger for component positioning. No external power or specialised fixtures are required, so it integrates directly into existing hand-tool workflows. The ESD-safe materials protect sensitive parts without additional grounding accessories.

Questions about this item

What type of wire can the 0.016 in maximum cutting diameter handle?

It cuts soft wire up to 0.016 in diameter; hard steel is limited to 1/64 in.

Will the spring-return jaw opening interfere with other tools in my kit?

The spring return simply reopens the jaws after each cut and does not affect adjacent tools.

How can I confirm the ESD-safe handles are protecting components during use?

The black/gray MultiGrip handles are moulded with dissipative material that meets ESD-safe requirements.
