KNIPEX Tools 95 05 20 US Angled Electricians' Shears, 6-1/4 inch

Overview

The KNIPEX Tools 95 05 20 US Angled Electricians' Shears are designed to feel like an extension of your hand. The 45° angled design offers a natural, comfortable working position while enhancing visibility in tight spaces. This combination can help you guide cuts with more confidence in crowded panels or restricted work areas, where sight lines matter as much as precision.

Built for daily use, the tool pairs precision-ground stainless steel blades with fine serrations to deliver clean, non-slip cuts. The blades' construction, along with a sturdy two-end ferrule crimping system and an integrated wire cutter, supports a variety of tasks from trimming conductors to preparing ferrules. An opening spring and locking mechanism simplify storage and transport, while a tether attachment point accommodates KNIPEX Tethered Tools System for added on-site security. A durable belt pouch (sold separately) offers convenient access when you’re moving between sites.
