FELCO C16 draadkabelschaar 590 mm met kunststofgecoate handgrepen

Unlike conventional bolt cutters that crush and fray cables, the FELCO C16 uses a triangular cutting mechanism to shear steel cables, high-tensile strands, and electrical wire up to 16 mm in diameter cleanly, preserving strand integrity for safe, reliable connections. Forged from hardened steel and Swiss-engineered for precision, this tool delivers consistent performance in the toughest industrial, marine, and construction environments.

Highlights

• Triangular cut technology prevents crushing and fraying of wire ropes
• Cuts steel cables up to 16 mm (5/8") and high-tensile strands up to 14 mm (9/16")
• Hardened steel blades with adjustable bolt for precise alignment
• Forged aluminum alloy handles with comfortable plastic coating
• 590 mm overall length provides excellent leverage for heavy-duty cutting
• Made in Switzerland to exacting quality standards

In daily use

Rigging on a construction site, maintaining marine cables, or working with electrical installations—the FELCO C16 delivers the cutting power you need without the hand fatigue. The long handles give you the mechanical advantage to slice through thick steel rods up to 10 mm (100 kg/mm²) with minimal effort. The adjustable blade bolt ensures the cutting edges stay perfectly aligned over years of service, while the plastic-coated handles provide a secure, non-slip grip even in wet or oily conditions. At 2.3 kg, it is substantial yet balanced for controlled cuts.
