Description
Platoshear Lead Cutters
Assemblers love its effortless shearing action, comfort, light weight, and safety for electronics lead cutting.

Try a new experience in effortless lead cutting. Platoshear requires 50% less operator effort and has a longer cutting life than conventional cutters because it shears rather than bites. And cushioned handles provide daylong comfort.

Platoshear has a thin profile designed for those "hard to get at" areas in electronics assembly where conventional cutters can't reach.
