Lindstrom 8141RX Extra Small Flush Tapered Head Side Cutters

Lindstrom 8141RX Extra Small Flush Tapered Head Side Cutters deliver precision flush cutting in a compact, ergonomically refined tool built for jewelers and metalsmiths who demand performance and comfort. Part number 146.8141RX, these side cutters feature tapered jaws — only slightly rounded at the tip — distinguishing them from the oval-jaw variants in the Lindstrom RX series, which have more fully rounded tips.

The flush cutting action leaves a practically smooth cut on one side of the material being cut. Because of this near-flush capability, these cutters require careful use within their rated cutting limits — exceeding the maximum cutting thickness increases the risk of tool damage.

Features

• Tapered Jaw Design: Slightly rounded at the tip for precise access in tight spaces, distinct from the oval-jaw RX cutters
• Flush Cut Performance: Produces a practically smooth cut on one side of the workpiece for clean, finished results
• Micro-Touch™ Handles: Advanced ergonomic cushioned grips that are longer and more comfortable than standard pliers, supporting extended use
• BioSpring® Adjustable Return Spring: Reduces spring tension during work to minimize fatigue; tension and opening width are adjustable by repositioning the spring end in the handle
• Reversible for Left-Handed Use: The BioSpring® spring can be reversed to accommodate left-handed users
• Removable Spring: BioSpring® can be completely removed if preferred
• Ergonomic Handle Profile: Slightly rounded and wider profile distributes surface pressure evenly for superior hand contact

Notes

• Because these cutters produce a flush cut, they are more susceptible to damage if used beyond their maximum cutting capacity — always observe the 16-gauge limit.
• Tapered jaws differ from oval jaws: oval jaws are more fully rounded at the tip, while tapered jaws are only slightly rounded. Verify jaw style before ordering if replacing an existing tool.
• The BioSpring® return spring can be adjusted, reversed for left-handed use, or removed entirely based on user preference.
