71 72 460 Bolt Cutters Multi-Component Grip 460mm

The Knipex 71 72 460 Bolt Cutters are robust, high-performance cutting tools designed for professional use in construction, engineering and maintenance applications. With a 460mm (18 inch) length, these bolt cutters provide excellent leverage and powerful cutting performance while remaining compact enough for easier handling in confined working areas.

The cutting jaws are manufactured from heavy-duty chrome vanadium steel that has been oil-hardened for maximum durability and strength. The cutting edges are additionally induction hardened to approximately 62 HRC, delivering exceptional wear resistance and reliable performance when cutting bolts, chains, rivets and other hardened materials.

An eccentric bolt adjustment system with 12 positions allows precise alignment of the cutting edges, ensuring optimum cutting performance and easy maintenance. The carefully designed coordination of the cutting edge angle and transmission ratio provides high cutting performance while minimising the effort required.

The bolt cutters feature a bolted cutter head that is replaceable, allowing worn parts to be easily replaced to extend the lifespan of the tool. The flat head and joint construction also allows improved access to workpieces in tighter or restricted spaces.

For enhanced comfort and control, the bolt cutters are equipped with ergonomically angled handles that help reduce user fatigue during operation. The handles are fitted with sturdy two-colour multi-component grips that provide excellent comfort and slip resistance. A forged-in stopper and integrated shock absorber further increase comfort by reducing impact when the cut is completed.

Designed for strength, durability and efficient cutting performance, the Knipex 460mm bolt cutters are an essential tool for professionals who require reliable heavy-duty cutting capability.
