Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between side cutting pliers and reamer pliers?
Side cutting pliers are designed specifically for cutting wires, while reamer pliers combine a cutting edge with a conical reamer tip. The reamer is used to deburr or enlarge holes, making this dual-purpose tool ideal for tasks like electrical panel repair or rigging adjustments.
Are these pliers suitable for offshore use?
Yes, these pliers are made from high-carbon steel with a corrosion-resistant finish, specifically chosen to perform reliably in the humid, salt-prone environment of offshore vessels. Regular cleaning and light oiling will extend their lifespan further.
Can these pliers cut stainless steel wire?
These pliers can cut soft stainless steel wire up to approximately 3 mm in diameter. For hardened stainless steel, we recommend using dedicated cable cutters to avoid damaging the cutting edges.
How do I maintain the reamer point?
The reamer point should be kept clean and free of debris. Wipe the tool after each use and apply a few drops of machine oil to the pivot joint and reamer tip to prevent rust and ensure smooth operation.
