Product Description
Milwaukee Cable Cutting Pliers
Model Number: 48-22-6104
The Milwaukee 48-22-6104 are Cable Cutting Pliers — professional-grade cable cutting pliers specifically engineered for making clean, square cuts through multi-conductor electrical cable, armored cable (MC/AC), coaxial cable, communication cable, and medium-gauge wire where the cutting geometry and jaw force of standard diagonal cutters produces crushing, ragged, or unacceptably oval cut ends. Milwaukee forges the plier head from high-quality steel with the blade profile and hardness needed for clean cable cutting — the forged head provides the structural mass and blade support geometry that distributes jaw closing force evenly across the full cutting blade engagement with the cable cross-section, producing the clean, single-motion cut ends that professional cable installation requires without the multiple-stroke rocking cuts that undersized or inadequate cutters need for the same cable sizes.
The cable cutter geometry uses a shear cutting action rather than the compression cutting of standard diagonal pliers — shear cutting slides the cable cross-section cleanly between the two blade faces rather than crushing it into the apex of a V-shaped cutting jaw, which preserves the cable's round cross-section at the cut end and produces the clean, round cut face that makes terminating and stripping cable ends straightforward. For electricians, cable installers, and telecommunications contractors who cut cable at high volume throughout a project day, the consistent clean cuts from proper cable cutting pliers reduce the supplemental deburring, end-forming, and preparation work that ragged cuts from wrong-size diagonal cutters create at every cut end that must be terminated or spliced. The spring-loaded jaw return reduces hand fatigue during high-volume cable cutting operations.
