Ratchet Cable Cutters

Greenlee ratchet cable cutters are designed for cutting cables precisely. These cable cutters feature a single-speed ratchet mechanism with a blade release function that allows the blades to be open mid-cut. They have a compact design, making them optimal for tight spaces. These cutters feature one-hand operation to ensure less fatigue on the body, and are available in lengths ranging from 10 to 20 inches.

Working Mechanism

  • Users can place the cable in between the jaws of the cutter.
  • A repeated gentle squeeze of the cutters handle slices the cable into two halves.
  • This action ensures that the cable is cut without rough edges pointing out.

  • Selected ratchet wire cutters feature a one-handed design, enabling one-handed cutting for linemen and electricians.
  • Their compact design enables application in confined spaces.
  • They have a single-speed ratchet mechanism for precise cuts and a blade release mechanism for allowing the blades to be opened mid-operation / cut.
  • They have insulated grips for complete protection against accidental electrical shocks from live lines.
  • They have built-in spring action for pushing the handles apart once the cable gets cut.

Frequently Asked Questions

Are these cutters ideal for live wires?

It is recommended to not cut / slice live wires as the high voltage wires may damage the insulation grip, thus passing the high amperage current to the user's body.

Are these cable cutters suitable for cutting oversized wires?

These ratchet wire cutters cut thick cables. However, the cable should be cut only if it fits inside the cutter's jaws with some margin-left out. Cutting oversized cables over cutters capacity damages the blade jaws of the cutter.
