Product Description
Milwaukee 8 in. Angled Head Diagonal Cutting Pliers
Model Number: 48-22-6528
The Milwaukee 48-22-6528 are 8 in. Angled Head Diagonal Cutting Pliers — a professional-grade cutting plier specifically designed for electricians and tradespeople who need to cut wire, cable, and leads flush or close to surfaces in tight spaces where standard straight-head diagonal cutters cannot position the cutting edge close enough to the work surface to make flush cuts. The angled head geometry positions the cutting edges at an angle to the handle axis — when the tool is oriented along the work surface, the angled jaws allow the cutting edge to reach flush or near-flush against panel surfaces, terminal strips, circuit boards, and cable tie anchor points that straight-head cutters must stand off from, leaving stubs that violate flush-cut requirements or create potential contact hazards. This flush-to-surface cutting capability is essential for professional electrical panel finishing, circuit board work, and cable tie installation where protruding wire stubs and cable tie tails must be cut as close as possible to the connection point or anchor.
The 8 in. handle length provides the mechanical leverage needed for cutting heavier wire gauges, multi-conductor cable, and medium-gauge solid copper and aluminum conductors without requiring excessive hand grip force — the longer handles multiply operator grip force into greater jaw cutting force than shorter compact cutters achieve at the same grip effort. Milwaukee builds these pliers to professional durability standards with precision-ground cutting edges from high-quality tool steel that maintain sharpness through the repeated cutting cycles of professional electrical and mechanical work, and with handle material and joint construction that provide consistent, reliable operation through daily professional use.
