\u201cWhether you are a Security, Telecom, Datacom, or Electrical installer, your tool belt needs a good pair of scissors,\u201d explained Lee Sachs, Platinum Tools, Inc. president and general manager. \u201cFrom ergonomic to scissor-run or free-fall, Platinum Tools has it all. Made in the U.S.A., choose them separately or combine your choice with a cable splicer\u2019s knife and a durable leather belt pouch for a simple, convenient solution.\u201d<\/p>\n
Ergo Electrician\u2019s Scissors (part # 10515C)
\nA total ergonomic design that is outside the box thinking. It will feel like it was custom made. The cushioned grip non-slip handle adds extra leverage for easy cutting, less wrist stress, and no pinch points. The professional installer\u2019s choice.<\/p>\n
Leather Pouch, Knife and Scissors Kits
\nThese kits provide simple solutions for the professional installer. Each kit includes a 6-inch nickel plated cable splicer\u2019s knife with a comfortable, non-slip grip, weighted handle, and your choice of scissors in a durable leather belt pouch.<\/p>\n
Scissor-Run Scissors; 5-inch (part # 10517C)
\nAn original favorite, this smooth cutting action, scissor-run design is excellent for cutting Kevlar\u00ae, foil, and wire. Cuts solid wire up to 16 AWG and stranded up to 12 AWG. Strips 19 and 23 AWG.<\/p>\n
Free-Fall Scissors; 5-inch (part # 10518C)
\nThe Free-Fall design makes it a true, security and telecom scissor. Hold the point of one blade straight up and the other at 180 degrees, and then let it drop; it free falls and stop \u00bc-inch from the point enabling the technician to use their fingertips to operate the snips.<\/p>\n
