Knipex 95 22 165 Cable Cutter 6-1/2 Inch Copper Aluminum

Product Description

The KNIPEX 95 22 165 is a compact cable cutter designed for cutting copper and aluminum single conductors as well as multiple stranded cables. Built with an ergonomic dual-component handle in red and blue, it provides a secure grip during repetitive cutting tasks. The tool measures 6-1/2 inches in overall length and handles cable up to 0.59 inches (15 mm) in diameter, rated to 1/0 AWG capacity. The adjustable screw joint allows the cutting action to be tuned for consistent performance across different cable sizes and conditions. Electricians and cable installers reach for this cutter when clean, precise cuts are needed on both solid and stranded conductors in the field or on the bench.

This cable cutter is suited for residential, commercial, and light industrial electrical work. Its compact 6-1/2 inch overall length makes it practical in tight panel spaces or conduit runs where a full-size cutter would be awkward. It handles the copper and aluminum conductors common in branch-circuit and service-entrance wiring. The 1/0 AWG capacity covers a wide range of feeder and branch-circuit conductors encountered in everyday electrical service work.

Key Features

• Cuts copper and aluminum single conductors and multiple stranded cables up to 1/0 AWG
• 0.59 inch (15 mm) maximum cutting capacity
• 6-1/2 inch overall length for use in confined spaces
• Adjustable screw joint for tunable cutting tension
• Ergonomic dual-component handle in red and blue for grip comfort during extended use

Compatibility

Designed for cutting copper and aluminum single conductors as well as multiple stranded cables up to 1/0 AWG. Suitable for general electrical wiring applications where clean conductor cuts are required.

Installation Notes

This tool is typically used by licensed electricians and low-voltage technicians. Always de-energize and lock out the circuit before cutting any conductor. Verify that cable diameter does not exceed the rated 0.59 inch capacity to avoid tool damage or an unsafe cut. Inspect the cutting edges and screw joint before each use and adjust the joint as needed for clean, single-stroke cuts.
