Channellock758 7.5-Inch Long Reach Diagonal Flush Cutting Plier, Blue

use for all of the zip ties for automation and home projects - cleans the ends.Solid so far and sharp

Works very good

These pliers are awesome, a must have for my toolbox. I've used them over the course of 2 years, and they haven't failed me yet. I have recommended to multiple peers.

I have had the Channellock tool for several months and use it for most fine gauge and also some medium gauge wire cutting, primarily 22ga, Cat5e-Cat7 (including single strand snips) solid and stranded copper up to 14 gauge. Clean, accurate cuts every time.+ vs -+ Professionally machined and finished.+ Everything aligns, blades are sharp.+ The pivot is a bit tight (I prefer this).+ They nip and cut fine to medium gauge wire beautifully.+ comfortable and ergonomic+ Compact and light weight- No significant fault=======If you need a tool of this design the Channellock is a no brainer.IMO this Channellock costs more than many other brands but they are a bargain for those who want high quality professional grade tools that will last for generations.'^_^' '^_^' '^_^' '^_^'

I was looking for an end cutter to cut zip ties that were 2" down inside machine cavities where I couldn't get my flush cutters. Unfortunately, this is not a flush cutter. it's beveled on both sides rather than just on the inside of the jaw so it leaves just enough zip tie sticking up to cut yourself on it. I will have to grind the end of the cutter flat to make it what I needed.

Channellock is by far superior to all products. This is perfect for hard-to-reach areas you need to cut.

I used to have these pliers but lost them a few years ago. I had looked at all hardware and tool sellers and could not find the same anywhere. When I found them here I was excited so I ordered them immediately. Arrive next day and work perfectly. Use them particularly for removing tense clips on gear shafts, but because of the tip design they are usefully for many things. Says they are American made so that is an extra bonus. Great quality, bought another pair to have as a spare.

I was changing out the brake drums on my 2001 Honda Cr-V (CRV) and FOR THE LOVE OF ALL THAT IS HOLY, if you plan on doing this, and don't want to end up bald, please please PLEASE do yourself a favor, and get this tool for the large return spring. Using regular pliers or a drum brake hook, that spring is very difficult (near impossible) to put back on, but with this tool, it only took me maybe 15 seconds.The variety I used was the Channellock 748 8-Inch Long Reach End Cutting Pliers. It must be the "END CUT" version. You essentially use it as a closed "hook" for the curved part of the spring. The regular drum brake spring hook tool (found in drum brake tool kits) was too large and cumbersome.Really just save yourself the aggravation and have it already in hand when you try to do this!I hope this helps someone in the future.

Reasonably priced and a great product

great

I was expecting more from this one. The size and shape is exactly what I was looking for. Buttt, cutting performance is week even for tie wraps and small gauge wires!! It struggles cutting them completely in first push!Update: may 10th :The flush cut that I bought first, is a bit flimsier so after losing it I gut the diagonal cut head.overall there is nothing better than this in the market for its shape, usage and quality. That's why I bought this twice.

Could have been better finished. Sharp edges present

I use the for doing drum brake springs. I know not what they are intended for but they are great for that. I got the other guys in the shop buying them for that same reason. Never had a issue with any channel lock pliers I’ve bought
