The 45-degree angled shears provides a natural extension of your hand which offers a more comfortable working position. In addition to comfort, the angle also allows for better sight lines when working in confined spaces. Key features include: precision-ground stainless steel blades with fine serrations for a non-slip cut, two end ferrule crimping areas (one for 10-20 AWG and one for 4-8 AWG), and an additional, built-in wire cutter at the top of the tool. The shears include an opening spring and lock for easy storage and transport.
