CK Yan Keski, U: 139 mm

CK Side cutter, 139mm Overall Length, 3mm Maximum Cutting Capacity - T3885

This side cutter is an ESD-safe cutting tool designed for precision electronic work, offering a specialised blade geometry for controlled wire and component leads removal in static-sensitive environments.

Features and Benefits:

• Special tool steel blade for sustained edge retention and clean cuts
  Full flush cutting removes protruding material close to surfaces
  3mm maximum cutting capacity for small-gauge conductor work
  2-component grip reduces hand slip and improves control
  ESD designation prevents electrostatic discharge during handling

Applications

• Suitable for cutting component leads on PCBs
  Used with sensitive electronic assemblies requiring antistatic handling
  Ideal for trimming small wires in harness assembly
  Can be used for precision work in laboratory repair tasks

What materials can it reliably cut?

It is intended for small metallic conductors up to a 3mm diameter and component leads commonly found in electronic assemblies.

How does the grip affect user handling?

The dual-material handle improves grip ergonomics and reduces slippage during repetitive precision operations.

Is the tool safe for use around electrostatic-sensitive devices?

Yes, it is designed with antistatic properties to minimise electrostatic discharge risk when handling sensitive components.

What aspect of the jaw design aids close trimming?

The cutting edges are configured for a flush finish, allowing removal of protrusions near the workpiece surface without leaving significant stubs.
