Armoured Cable Cutter

Armored cable cutters are specialized tools designed to cut through armored cables, which have a protective metal sheath around them to provide extra durability and protection. These cutters are often designed with stronger materials and more robust mechanisms than standard cable cutters to handle the tough outer layers of armored cables.

Here are key points about armored cable cutters:

Features of Armored Cable Cutters:

1. Robust Design: Armored cable cutters feature heavy-duty materials like high-strength steel blades that can cut through thick and tough cable jackets, including steel, aluminum, and copper armor.
2. Ratchet Mechanism: These cutters often employ a ratchet mechanism, allowing for incremental cutting, reducing user effort and providing more precise cuts, especially in large cables.
3. Kapasiteit:
   • The cutting range for armored cables varies by model, from smaller diameters like 100 mm² to larger capacities like 160 mm².
   • Some models may cut through multiple layers of armoring in one go, depending on the size and strength of the cutter.
4. Draagbaarheid: Many models are designed to be portable, with ergonomic handles and lighter materials to allow for easier transportation to work sites.
5. Cutting Range:
   • The cutters are capable of handling various types of cables, including copper, aluminum, and armored cables, with capacities ranging from 100 mm² to 535 mm² depending on the model.

Models Suitable for Cutting Armored Cable:

• J40: ≤ 350 mm² Cu-Al core armored cable
• J52: ≤ 50 mm² Cu-Al core armored cable
• J75: ≤ 63 mm² Cu-Al core armored cable
• J95: ≤ 63 mm² Cu-Al core armored cable
• J100: ≤ 100 mm² Armored cable
• J130: ≤ 130 mm² Armored cable
• J160: ≤ 160 mm² Armored cable

Aansoeke:

These cutters are ideal for electrical and utility workers who need to cut through armored cables used in power lines, telecommunications, and industrial wiring installations.
