Dual Color Side Cutting Plier (165mm)

A dual-color side cutting plier is a type of hand tool commonly used for cutting wires, cables, and other materials. The “dual-color” refers to the distinctive color scheme of the handles, which often have two different colors for better visibility and identification. The 165mm measurement indicates the length of the pliers, which is approximately 6.5 inches.

Side cutting pliers, also known as diagonal pliers or wire cutters, are characterized by their angled cutting edges. The cutting edges are designed to meet at an angle, allowing the pliers to be used in tight spaces or close to a surface. This design makes them particularly useful for cutting wires or cables flush to a surface or in hard-to-reach areas.

The dual-color handles of the pliers serve multiple purposes. The contrasting colors on the handles not only make the tool visually appealing but also aid in quickly identifying the pliers in a toolbox or work area. The color scheme can help distinguish the pliers from other tools, making it easier to locate them when needed.

When using side cutting pliers, it’s important to select the appropriate size and type for the material being cut. Different pliers are designed for specific wire gauges and materials, so using the correct tool ensures clean and efficient cuts while reducing the risk of damage to the pliers or the material being cut.
