Porter 8690CK Guy Strand Bolt Cutter 28 Inch","description":"\u003ch3\u003eProduct Description\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe H.K. PORTER 8690CK is a ratcheting guy strand cutter designed for cutting steel guy wire and similar hard materials with clean, square results. At 28 inches overall length with an angled-tip head, it delivers the leverage and blade geometry needed to handle tough utility and telecom strand without distorting the cut end. The shear-cut blade design with notched retention keeps material firmly in place during the cut cycle. Weighing 8.75 pounds, this tool is built for field use by electricians, linemen, and utility technicians who need reliable, repeatable cuts on high-tensile strand.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe 8690CK is suited for applications involving guy strand installation and removal on utility poles, telecom infrastructure, and overhead service work. The ratcheting mechanism reduces the hand force required on large-diameter strand up to 0.5 inches, making it practical for repeated use during production splicing or pole work. The angled-tip head gives access in tight or awkward positions where a center-cut jaw would not clear surrounding hardware. Black rubber handles provide grip and reduce hand fatigue during extended use.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRatcheting shear-cut action for controlled, low-force cutting of hard strand\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNotched blades hold material firmly in place and prevent slipping during the cut\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAngled-tip head style improves access in confined utility hardware configurations\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e0.5 inch cutting capacity handles standard steel guy strand\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e28 inch overall length delivers mechanical advantage for high-tensile material\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBlack rubber handles for grip and operator comfort\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement and standard production tool for cutting guy strand and similar high-tensile wire up to 0.5 inches in diameter in utility, electrical, and telecommunications applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis tool is typically used by licensed electricians, linemen, and utility technicians working on overhead line hardware. Ensure all energized conductors are de-energized and properly grounded before working in proximity to live lines. Inspect blades for wear or nicking before each use, as damaged shear-cut blades will compromise cut quality. This cutter is not rated as an insulated tool and must not be used as protection against electrical hazard.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eType\u003c\/strong\u003e: Guy Strand Cutter\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutter Style\u003c\/strong\u003e: Ratcheting\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCut Style\u003c\/strong\u003e: Shear-Cut\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutting Capacity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 28 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHead Style\u003c\/strong\u003e: Angled Tip\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHandle Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Rubber\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHandle Color\u003c\/strong\u003e: Black\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsulated\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 8.75 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUNSPSC Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 27112151\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: H.K.
