User questions & answers
Question: | Are these for cutting copper as well |
Answer: | Well hi Justin!You have about the finest cable cutters money can buy there and they are made to pretty exacting tolerances. I would not use WD-40 for anything since it is an aircraft wing deicer and is not a good lubricant. Instead pick up a bottle of 3 in 1 Oil also made by WD-40. This light machine oil will work great. Use it on the center hinge both sides and open and close the blades several times to work it into the pin. As you use the cutter they will eventually get easier to open. Congratulations on your purchase you did well! Mike |

User questions & answers
Question: | How Well will these cut through #2 stranded |
Answer: | Should but better suited for stranded cable Great for cable |
Question: | Are they imported like the description says, or made in USA like the picture shows |
Answer: | This works just like a wire cutter except that the wire/cable is pushed to the back of the cutter as the blade portion makes contact. A wire cutter would tend to push the wire out of the cutter as it makes contact. This is probably especially important on hard wire. Stranded wire is a breeze because it tends to keep the wire intact rather than flattening it as it cuts. Not sure why they include the ferrules, this item is not a crimper. |
Question: | Picture shows made in usa mark on the tool. description says "imported". is this channellock brand and made in usa cutter |
Answer: | Yes ,our 36" CABLE CUTTER will be availeble next 2 month |
Question: | Is this as good or better than the Klein version |
Answer: | I think 18/10 is a bit over 0.25" so would be easily and cleanly cut by these loppers. I recently cut some 4/0 cable at 0.53" copper with a total diameter of 0.71" - it was a REAL challenge but left a clean cut. |

User questions & answers
Question: | will these cut guitar strings |
Answer: | Yes with ease. I used mine to cut aircraft quality s/s cable on a compound bow. The beauty of this cutter, it will not distort or fray the cable during the cut. I’m glad I bought! |
Question: | Will these cut through 9.5mm thickness jewelry chain |
Answer: | I can only tell you that "you get what you pay for" regarding this tool. I found it lacking the ability to cut the cable as it claims after being used on one project that required about 30 cuts. It claims 5/32" in diameter and your 9.5mm is equal to about 3/8" (12/32) so I would so no. |
Question: | Do you think that this could cut 5mm cable tubing for a mountain bike |
Answer: | I have only used it to cut 1/8” twisted stainless rope. It works very well for that. |
Question: | Could these cut fishing hooks |
Answer: | I do not know. However, fish hooks are hardened, where as 1/8 cable is not. I would think that the hardened metal would damage these cutters. That's my guess. |
- This cable cutter is designed for cutting steel wire which up to 5/32”, If you want to cut the steel cable seals, single strand wire, like the fencing wire, any bolt cutter should do. after 200 cuts off the 1/8'' 7x7 assemble coated steel security cable it still very sharp and clean cut
- This cable cutter can make very precise, very clean cuts without fraying or smashing the ends. it not only cut the cutaway cables and ripcords perfectly also great for grommet removal.

User questions & answers
Question: | how many piece's come's |
Answer: | You only get one, and as I have mentioned in my previous posts, I defy any human to cut 5/32 stainless steel deck cable with this cutter. I returned mine, and got a 3 foot long cable cutter to do the job, and that wasn't easy either. |
Question: | Is there a warranty on this? Item broke during the one project we used it on |
Answer: | Amazon should take it back, or contact the seller. They should make it right |
Question: | We’re not even finished with the project and the hydraulic crimped stopped working, how do we fix it? Will Mazuta teplace it |
Answer: | Are you sure you have the round pressure release knob fully cranked down? I found that if It wasn’t fully tightened it wouldn’t crimp all the way. My hand was sore each day from tightening |
Question: | will this work on bicycle cables and housing |
