Wiha 32705 Diagonal Cutting Plier Esd Safe Tapered Head

Product Description

The WIHA 32705 is a diagonal cutting plier designed for precision cutting tasks in environments where electrostatic discharge (ESD) control is required. Built with a tapered head and flush cutting style, this plier produces clean cuts with minimal force. The anti-static handle construction and dissipative material make it suitable for work on sensitive electronic assemblies, control boards, and low-voltage wiring. It handles wire up to 18 AWG (1.00 mm) and features a maximum jaw opening of 0.4 inches. Ergonomic molded grips with a soft touch tension return spring reduce hand fatigue during repetitive cutting operations.

The WIHA 32705 is suited for electrical and electronics technicians working on control panels, HVAC low-voltage wiring, building automation systems, and circuit board assembly. The ESD-safe design makes it appropriate for use near sensitive components where standard tools could induce static damage. The tapered head allows access into tight spaces and connector-dense areas typical in control enclosures and panel work. Finger jam protection adds a layer of safety during extended use in confined work areas.

Key Features

• ESD-safe anti-static handle with dissipative material construction
• Flush cutting style for clean, low-profile cuts on wire and leads
• Tapered head design for access in tight or congested spaces
• Soft touch tension return spring reduces hand fatigue during repetitive use
• Finger jam protection for safer operation in confined areas
• Tether capable for use in elevated or drop-sensitive work environments

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose ESD-safe diagonal cutting plier suitable for low-voltage electrical, electronics, and control wiring applications up to 18 AWG.

Installation Notes

This tool is intended for use by qualified electrical and electronics technicians. Always de-energize circuits and follow lockout/tagout procedures before cutting or trimming wires in control panels or live enclosures. The ESD-safe rating requires proper grounding of the technician and workspace to be effective — the tool alone does not guarantee full ESD protection. Inspect the handles and cutting edges before each use and replace if damaged.
