Side Cutters

Side cutters are an electrician's best friend, they’re pliers which are specifically designed to cut wire.

They’re also known as: - 

​

  • Diagonal cutting pliers

  • Diagonal cutting nippers

  • Side cutting nippers

​

​

There are a vast number of different wires and wire types, which means that there are different versions of side cutters available.

​

The side cutter blades are always pitched at an angle this makes it easier to cut items close to something solid without the handles getting in the way.
