Try the likes of RS or The Crimp Company in Liverpool for price comparisons bud.

Canoe,

Does the ratchet come completely away or do you have to thread the cable through?

CPC sell a similar cutter



it was on offer for about

What thickness of cable will they cut Andy?

 

[Andy™]

i think 8 bits of 10mm T&E was the most ive tried it with. doesnt get used much - my other cutters will easily go through a 35mm single or 16mm twin

They're expensive , we had some for cropping 120mm and 185mm,s , worth it if you're doing a lot of that stuff. Someone nicked ours and I've not replaced them.

As a result of my 'Clinical Obsession' for tools I have

CPC version....I have used this to cut [i think] 300 sq mm trirated singles

2 x 'parrot beak' cutters upto 400mm

I also had one off a bloke on ebay....big enough to take your arm off. Pile of carp....broke mid job on a sub-station contract. Used the CPC one to finish the job with no problems. {did not have the parrot beaks at that time}

So, yes, the CPC one is fine.............. :coat

I Have used the Wieldmullers, on a job to cut 90mm 2 core , feeds from a UPS for the signalling equipment in st pancras,

Much easier than the long handled "Lopers" that you end up smashing your fingers together on

no tell a lie it was not the weildmullers......... they had a red handle, these belonged to the company i worked for then,

Most of weildmullers stuff is good, i use their auto strippers and thier all in one stripping and ferruling tool, with ferrules on a bandolier
