We've got a fresh batch coming off the line, 500 pieces to start at MOQ, and lead time is usually about 3-4 weeks depending on whether our company have stock in the warhouse, but confirm that before you place order.
Basically, you're looking at an 8-inch pair of wire cutters made form 45# high carbon steel, which is better than plain carbon steel for holding an edge through repetitive work—it's chrome plated to keep rust at bay, and the capacty is up to 3mm hard wire or so.
The handle dip isn't just for grip either; we've found that blue and orange color options help your crew grab the right tool from a crowded toolbox, and the half-box joint keeps alignment steady so you're not fighting a loosening pivot after a few hundred cuts.
Most electricians we talk to pair these with a set of screwdrivers for panel work, but they're not really suited for stainlss steel cable or armoured cable—something in teh 5mm range would bind the edge pretty quickly, actually.
Each unit goes at about 350g, which gives it a solid heft without being heavy enough to tire your wrists midway through a job, and we'll include a COA with your first order showing the batch production test on edge hardness (roughly 47-50 HRC depending on heat treat). 6. Well, one detail buyers don't always think to ask: the chrome layer is about 8-10 microns thick, and while that looks nice, if you cut a lot of wet or oily wire regularly you'll still want to dry them off after use—it's not going to flake, but we wouldn't soak them in solvent overnight either.
Yes, we can send a sample of the GY30211 for you to test first. Just cover the shipping cost, and we'll provide the pliers free of charge.
Lead time is typically 15-20 days after order confirmation, depending on current production load. We'll give you a more exact timeline when you place the order.
Yes, we can provide a material test report for the carbon steel and a certificate confirming the chrome plating meets standard industrial quality specs. Just request it with your order.
Keep them in a dry environment, ideally with a light coat of oil on the cutting edges if storing long-term. The chrome plating helps resist corrosion, but carbon steel can still rust if exposed to moisture.
Sure, we offer customization for handle colors and logo printing. Minimum order for custom colors is typically 1,000 pieces, and we'll need about 10 extra days for production setup.
