Product Description
Optimized for size, precision and comfort, the Fiskars Precision Wire Cutter is just the right size for home décor and DIY project needs. Softgrip touchpoints on the handles enhance comfort and control, while a smart, spring-action design helps reduce hand fatigue by opening the jaws automatically after every cut. Sharp, angled edges on the blade let you make easy, precise cuts on thicker craft, floral and jewelry wire.
At 6 inches long, this cutter is compact enough for detail work yet offers enough leverage for heavier gauge wire, making it a go-to for wreath making, floral arranging, jewelry making, model building and light electrical or household repairs. Item 1071481 is the current Fiskars model and replaces the previous version of this wire cutter (UPC 020335061880).
Features & Benefits
- Just the right size for easy control and precision
- Softgrip touchpoints for comfortable, non-slip handles
- Spring-action design helps reduce hand fatigue during repetitive cutting
- Sharp, angled edge allows for precise cuts on thicker wire
- White and gray handles are easy to find in a crowded craft bin or toolbox
- Length: 6 in.
Common Uses
- Floral and wreath wire, stem wire and chicken wire forms
- Jewelry and beading wire, headpins and eye pins
- Craft, model and miniature building
- Twist ties, zip ties and light gauge household wire
Warning: cut hazard, sharp blade. Always keep blades away from fingers and body and keep out of reach of children.
Instructions
- Squeeze the handles to open the cutter; the spring returns the jaws to the open position automatically.
- Position the wire deep in the angled cutting edges, close to the pivot, for the most leverage on thicker wire.
- Squeeze firmly with a single steady motion until the cut is complete. Do not twist or rock the cutter.
- Keep fingers and hands clear of the cutting edges and the cut wire end.
- Wipe the blades clean and dry after use and store closed.

hot melt rubber (synthetic)
Offers the widest range of application flexibility available. Exhibits excellent processing performance whether manually or automatically applied. Has superior tensile strength, adhesion properties and holding force which ensures consistent, reliable seals. Hot melt adhesive will bond faster to a surface which is referred to as quick-grab or quick-stick. It typically has higher tack (will feel stickier to the touch), but is also softer. It has lower heat resistance, shear resistance, and sometimes UV resistance than an acrylic adhesive. NOTE: it is called hot melt because the adhesive is applied hot by the manufacturer and then hardens as it cools (you do not need to apply heat to the tape yourself).
natural rubber
Properties are similar to that of hot melt rubber, but natural rubber often holds where other adhesives won't (recycled fibers, dust, cold, heat and heavy loads). It provides good overall adhesion and moisture resistance.
acrylic
Offer excellent performance, especially for applications in temperatures less than 40°F and greater then 120°F. It provides excellent clarity, has high shear strength, is usually more permanent/durable even when exposed to moisture, and it ages well over extended periods in fluorescent and sunlight. Since it remains clear for the life of the application and does not yellow over time it is ideal for applications such as sealing white cartons. While it has good initial adhesion it does take 24-48 hours to cure and to achieve its maximum bond strength (has gradual adhesion buildup). Another difference between hot melt rubber and acrylic adhesive is if you fold tape over making the two adhesive sides touch the acrylic adhesive will remain attached to the carrier (e.g. paper, film) while a hot melt adhesive will stick to itself and pull off of the carrier. It is the best choice for clarity, UV resistance and aging characteristics.
silicone
Is great for extreme temperature applications since silicone adhesive can work in continuous operating temperatures from -100°F to 500°F. They also exhibit good chemical resistance, retain electrical properties, and remove cleanly with little or no residue.
zinc oxide
Zinc oxide based adhesive formula is a skin-friendly adhesive which is commonly used on sports medicine tapes.
Thickness, AKA caliper or gauge, refers to the distance from one surface of a tape backing, or adhesive, to the other.
1 mil = 1/1000 of an inch
Examples: 1/16 inch = 62.5 mils; 1/32 inch = 31.25 mils
Lower gauge gloves are heavier - have thicker construction, fewer stiches knitted per inch and offer less dexterity.
Higher gauge gloves are lighter - have thinner/finer construction, more stitches knitted per inch and offer more dexterity.
Gloves offered typically runs from 7 to 18 (12 and 13 are in the middle of the scale).
