SogYupk Ratchet Cable Wire Cutter,Ratcheting Cable Cutter Hand Tool,Heavy Duty Aluminum Copper Ratchet Wire Cutting For Cutting Electrical Wire Up to 240mm²/10.23Inch Cutter Pliers

Cuts through 4/0 like butter without needing to be sharpened out of the box, cuts all the way through, and cuts clean. Used on live 120v with 3 overlapped layers of 88 on the handles. Didn’t try cutting ACSR, as they’re not rated for it anyway. Seem built just fine - I would say the cheapest feeling aspect is the release tab, but it’s perfectly adequate. If you’ve got plenty of money to throw at tools, by all means, buy the insulated Klein/Greenlee/Knipex/whatever that cut ACSR too, but for the average working man who needs a set, my advice is don’t hesitate with these! At $30, I’m sure a few lemons escape QC, but I got a good pair.

These are a great set of cutters. I use these cutters on a regular basis on the job cutting everything from 4/0 wire (although they do struggle a little with that size) to multi-conductor wire that my regular side cuts will not cut. The ratchet is smooth and regular allowing for a fairly even cut while the quick release allows me to cut into the sheathing so that I can crimp my lugs onto the x/0 wires easily because, lets face it, I am cheap, and if I can use a tool for more than one thing that is even better. Something that I am not to fond of with these cutters is the fact that the finger molding on the handles seems to be on the wrong side for my dominant hand, good for lefties though. Definitely not a deal breaker though. I will be recommending these cutters to my boss because the price would allow the company to purchase sets of these for each of the electricians that work in the shop and lets face it, if we don't have to go hunting cutters down from the high voltage guys, that makes us faster at our jobs.

I use them to cut 6-3 copper and 8-3 cu pVc jacket AIA MC and Teck cable. They work pretty good not super clean cuts and the thin stands can get caught sometimes but great for the price. Would and have recommended them to coworkers

Cuts effortlessly, will buy again

I was looking for a cutter to help with 4/0 alum. wire, and this fit the bill perfectly! Inexpensive and will work great for as many times as I will need it as I don't wire for a living. I am sure it would hold up for many-many large electrical wire cuts, on at least the 200A services. Please refer to the size ranges for size info. On durability gave 4 stars as not sure how many 600 MCM wires it may hold up to.

Producto de excelente calidad, lo recomiendo

I use this to cut aluminum SEU and SER service cable and it works fine. You can tell it is not top quality and I cannot vouch for how long it will last but for the price its better than using a sawzall. 5/26/14 update I am not a daily user but the tool handle spring just broke but I am still able to actuate it by hand. I only use them on aluminum up to 4/0 ser and up to 500mcm single conductor aluminum.

If you are cutting thick copper cables, this is a very good too for you. I'd been using the old fashioned pliers type cutters for years and found it tough to go thru the cable at 1/0 thickness. With this ratching cutter, it is almost effortless. It also cuts rubbers hoses just as well. Gives a relatively clean cut, not super flat. Metal seems to be cheap but cuts well so far. Not sure how long it will last. But at this price, it is not reasonable to expect a long life from a tool.

I am an Industrial electrician. These work just awesome for cutting tek cables.. Cut a lot of 14/3c, 8/3c, even 2/3c aluminum armoured tek. I was skeptical, but now recommend them to everyone. I wouldnt say that I baby them, but I know they are cheap cutters so I don't try to do anything stupid with them. Tried 500kcmil copper and I wouldn't recommend them for that.. But for 90% of tasks they are more than adequate. People can't believe they were 40 bucks. Gotta keep them tight and clean but for the money, great addition to the bag.

Excelente herramienta, de muy buena calidad, la utilize para cortar cable tipo KC750, la primera vez me costo un poco, pero le di un retoque a las cuchillas con una lima de media caña fina y mejoro mucho para el corte, me costo menos trabajo, y esta a muy buen precio.

Works perfect with 4/0 have used one everyday for 3 years
