Engineer® NZ-13G ESD-Safe Reversed Jaw Offset Cutters

Engineer has been manufacturing high-quality Japanese precision tools since 1948. If you’re looking for the very best precision hand tools for your projects – look no further. Check out our full range of Engineer tools here!

The Engineer NZ-13G are reversed jaw ‘offset’ cutters – the offset handle design makes it possible to cut IC legs in full view of the user (holding the cutters vertically relative to the PCB). The jaws have a super-fine cutting edge, which enables easy flush cutting of electronic component leads and avoids tearing or solder cracking on the circuit board.

Features

• Super-fine reversed blade – each tip measures just 0.3mm (perfect for cutting narrow pitch QFP & SOP components)
• The reversed blades make it possible to accurately view while cutting awkward components
• Cutting action designed to avoid tearing off or damaging the circuit board solder joint
• ESD-safe handles made of thermoplastic elastomer (TPR) for a comfortable grip
• Sprung grips (handles spring out when released)
• Lightweight (just 35g)
• Cutting capacity (φ dia.): 0.6mm copper wire
• Constructed from S55C Carbon Steel
• Made in Japan
