About the Wire cutters

Wire cutters are pliers made for snipping through wire rather than gripping it. Their short, sharp jaws meet at an angle, so one firm pinch slices a metal wire clean in two. Electricians and crafters use them to trim wires to the right length. Print this for a hands-on making lesson and trace the handles down to the cutting jaws.

  • Wire cutters have sharp angled jaws that snip through metal wire.
  • Their design is meant for cutting, not for gripping or turning.
