Lindstrom 6152 Flush EDGE Tapered-Shear Cutter

Flush EDGE tapered shear cutter for precise, low-profile cutting of soft wire and small components at the bench. The slim tapered jaws slip into tight spaces and close with a crisp, controlled snap.

Features

• High-performance alloy steel construction with precision-ground shear cutting edges.
• Rockwell hardness of 63–65 HRC for long-lasting sharpness and edge stability.
• Expert shear cutting technology with controlled edge overlap of less than 0.2 mm for extremely clean, flush cuts on fine wires.
• Tapered flush jaws provide excellent access into confined areas and for close trimming work.
• Ergonomic, lightweight handles with textured grips for comfort and secure control.
• Return spring and opening limiter promote smooth operation and help minimize hand fatigue during repetitive cutting.
• Designed for flush cutting of soft wire up to 16 ga within the stated cutting limits.

Specifications

Notes

• Flush cutters leave a practically smooth cut on one side of the material; because they cut so close, the cutting edges are more likely to be damaged if their limitations are exceeded.
• Lindstrom cutters are not guaranteed; cutting limits printed on the handles apply to soft copper wire only.
• Metal alloys commonly used for jewelry are significantly harder than soft copper; dents in the cutting surface indicate that the material being cut exceeds the hardness limits of the cutters.
• If damage occurs to the tips, grind the undamaged side down to match the damaged side and continue to use the cutters as a working tool.
• All types of flush cutters used in jewelry work should be considered consumable labor-saving devices rather than permanent tools.
