Weller Erem Semi-Flush ESD Safe Cable Cutter

Weller Cable Cutter, 1.8mm Maximum Cutting Capacity, 120mm Overall Length - 896E

This cable cutter is a precision hand tool designed for electronic and small‑scale wiring tasks, providing controlled cutting of conductors in workshop and field settings. It is built for users in automation, electronics, electrical and mechanical disciplines who require accurate, repeatable cuts without bulk.

Features and Benefits:

• Oval head profile enables access to confined spaces
  Semi‑flush cutting action minimises protruding conductor ends
  High grade tool steel jaws ensure long service life
  ESD safe construction reduces static risk for sensitive components
  Plastic grips deliver secure handling during repetitive work
  Bi‑metal handles balance strength with user comfort

Applications

• Suitable for trimming wire leads on electronic assemblies
  Used for cutting small control cables in automation panels
  Ideal for maintenance tasks in electrical switchgear rooms
  Can be used for precision wire work in mechanical prototypes

What is the maximum conductor thickness it can cut?

It is rated to sever conductors up to 1.8mm in diameter, suitable for most small electronic and control wires.

How wide and long are the cutting jaws for positioning accuracy?

The cutting faces present a 10mm width and a 10mm length, helping with repeatable placement on conductors.

Is the tool approved for live‑voltage work?

The tool is not approved for 1000V use and should not be relied upon for insulation against live circuits.

Does the design support electrostatic‑sensitive component handling?

Yes, the tool is constructed to be ESD‑safe, reducing the chance of static discharge when working near sensitive parts.
