I prefer CK cutters, but for a third of the price, these are a great option. Good size, comfortable in the hand and do the job. Review: Great snips for the money! - Absolutely superb! I use them daily at work, cutting sealing wire, roughly the thickness of piano wire. I've now been using them for months, and they're still sharp! ## Features - VDE-TESTED 1000V INSULATED – Diagonal side cutters tested to VDE standard for safe cutting on live electrical work up to 1000 volts, certified isolation on both 2-component handles for protected wire and cable work - HIGH-LEVERAGE CUTTING EDGES – Hardened induction-tempered jaws shear medium-hard steel wire up to Ø 2.3 mm and hard wire up to Ø 1.5 mm; flush-cut tip alignment for clean precise cuts on stranded copper, steel cable and cable ties - CHROME VANADIUM STEEL (CR-V) – Forged Cr-V steel body with phosphated and galvanic-coated surface for maximum corrosion resistance and long service life under daily electrician, workshop and engineering use - ERGONOMIC 2-COMPONENT GRIPS – Anti-slip 2-component handles with insulating sleeves provide secure hold, reduce hand fatigue on long jobs and protect against shock during electrical installation and maintenance - COMPACT 160 MM FORMAT – Small wire cutters at 160 mm overall length, 21 mm cutting jaws, light 214 g weight for one-hand control in tight panels and junction boxes; built for heavy daily use by electricians, mechanics, DIY users and craft wire work ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B013URC1GU | | Best Sellers Rank | 8,854 in DIY & Tools ( See Top 100 in DIY & Tools ) 13 in Side-cutting Pliers | | Brand | S&R | | Colour | Red - Yellow | | Country of Origin | China | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 out of 5 stars 2,446 Reviews | | Cutting Width | 2.3 Millimeters | | Grip Type | Ergonomic | | Handle Material | 2-component handle | | Handle material | 2-component handle | | Included Components | Diagonal Side Cutter | | Item Dimensions L x W | 16L x 2.1W centimetres | | Item Weight | 0.22 Kilograms | | Item weight | 0.22 Kilograms | | Manufacturer | S&R Industriewerkzeuge GmbH | | Material | Chrome-Vanadium steel, 60CrV, HRC 58-65 | | Model Number | 161.513.160 | | Part Number | 161.513.160 | | Product dimensions | 16L x 2.1W centimetres | | Specification Met | VDE | | Usage | electrician | ## Product Details - **Brand:** S&R - **Colour:** Red - Yellow - **Cutting width:** 2.3 Millimeters - **Grip type:** Ergonomic - **Handle material:** 2-component handle - **Item weight:** 0.22 Kilograms - **Material:** Chrome-Vanadium steel, 60CrV, HRC 58-65 - **Product dimensions:** 16L x 2.1W centimetres - **Specific uses for product:** electrician - **Specification met:** VDE ## Images ![Wire Cutters 160 mm VDE Insulated 1000V – Diagonal Side Cutters & Flush Cutters for Electrical Work, Cutting Pliers Chrome Vanadium Steel, Snips for Cable Wire, Electrician Cutting Pliers - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71Fb+M-2ZEL.jpg) ![Wire Cutters 160 mm VDE Insulated 1000V – Diagonal Side Cutters & Flush Cutters for Electrical Work, Cutting Pliers Chrome Vanadium Steel, Snips for Cable Wire, Electrician Cutting Pliers - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81f9sSEhEgL.jpg) ![Wire Cutters 160 mm VDE Insulated 1000V – Diagonal Side Cutters & Flush Cutters for Electrical Work, Cutting Pliers Chrome Vanadium Steel, Snips for Cable Wire, Electrician Cutting Pliers - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81AoBo0NSPL.jpg) ![Wire Cutters 160 mm VDE Insulated 1000V – Diagonal Side Cutters & Flush Cutters for Electrical Work, Cutting Pliers Chrome Vanadium Steel, Snips for Cable Wire, Electrician Cutting Pliers - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81W72aHpd2L.jpg) ![Wire Cutters 160 mm VDE Insulated 1000V – Diagonal Side Cutters & Flush Cutters for Electrical Work, Cutting Pliers Chrome Vanadium Steel, Snips for Cable Wire, Electrician Cutting Pliers - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81erZVbnOgL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great value *by W***N on 2 May 2026* A decent pair of diagonal side-cutters.
