Ascend Tools’ Multi-Purpose Electrical Shears cut soft stranded wire, strips wire and deburs electrical boxes.  It has a cable cutting notch close to the fulcrum for high leverage and cuts 12 AWG wires easily.  The notch is deep for lodging thick wire into it and facilitates single step cutting.  Its blades are made of high carbon alloy steel from Japan and are infused with Molybdenum and Vanadium through a proprietary manufacturing process to harden (Rockwell Standard HRC 58-60) the cutting blades needed for cutting wire.  One blade is micro-serrated to avoid slippage, and the other can be sharpened to extend life.  The tang on the blades is long for efficient force transfer.  These Electrical Shears are an electrician's choice scissors for performance and durability.

These 5.5" shears are meant for clean cuts into soft wires (e.g., SOOW 14/3 or SJOOW 12/3 cord).  The sharp and hardened blades are meant for hundreds of clean cuts, thus reducing hand fatigue.  It can also cut thin copper sheets.  A crimping function is provided in-between the handles.  The outer edges of the blades incorporate a file with a series of sharp, parallel teeth to file off burrs from electrical boxes or smoothing surfaces.  These excellent shears are currently being used in electrical, data communications, cabling, MRO, cable and harness assembly, fiber optic, and custom cabling industries.

For longer shears with slightly higher cutting leverage please see ATi-817 (6-1/8 inch / 156 mm, smaller notch with more leverage, serrated edge).

Special Features:

  • Very sharp cutting edges to easily cut soft stranded cable up to 18mm OD (e.g., SOOW 12/4 or SJOOW 10/3)

  • Strip insulation, cut insulation, cable ties, soldering wick and crimp terminals (0.5 - 4mm2)

  • File and clean burrs in punch outs holes on electrical boxes

  • Cut copper sheet up to 0.5 mm thick

  • Micro-serrated blade for non-slip cutting (one blade only)

  • Non-serrated blade can be sharpened to extend life

  • Extended tang for durability and efficient force transfer

  • Handles made of Nylon with 30% fiberglass & TPR over-molded

  • Ambidextrous; handles accommodate different hold preferences

Excellent for home electrical work; room for improvement
I bought these for home electrical work and they have been fantastic, very easy to use. The only drawback is the crimping function, which could be improved, but overall, it's an excellent tool.
