Professional end-cutting nippers for wire work

The Knipex 99 01 250 end cutting nippers are built for electricians and technicians who need to trim hard and medium-hard wire flush to a surface. They cut hard wire up to 1.6 mm and medium-hard wire up to 2.4 mm at 61 HRC. The flush cutting edge leaves a clean finish without protruding ends.

Simple one-hand operation with twist-and-cut action

The tool combines twisting and cutting in a single motion, reducing repetitive strain during bundle work. Ergonomic red plastic handles give a secure grip without ESD protection. No adjustment is required; the joint is factory-set for consistent performance. The only common issue is applying excess force beyond the 0.09 in maximum wire thickness, which can damage the cutting edges.

Check wire hardness and diameter before ordering

Verify that the wire you plan to cut falls within the 1.6 mm hard-wire and 2.4 mm medium-hard-wire limits. Confirm that a flush cut is required for your application, as these nippers do not leave a pinch. Ensure the non-ESD-safe handles meet your workplace safety rules. The tool is supplied new and ready for immediate use.

Questions about this item

How can I confirm the nipper is cutting flush as intended after first use?

Make a test cut on medium-hard wire up to 2.4 mm; the jaws should leave a flat, flush end with no pinch mark, showing the cutting edges are aligned.

What comes in the box and is any accessory required for operation?

The nipper itself is supplied ready to use; no separate jaws, springs or power source are needed.

Which capacity version should I choose for hard wire up to 1.6 mm?

This model is rated for 1.6 mm hard wire and 2.4 mm medium-hard wire, so it covers both ranges in a single tool.
