FELCO C112 Two-Hand Wire and Cable Cutter - Steel Cable up to 12.7mm (Cam-Assisted)

FELCO C112 Two-Hand Wire and Cable Cutter - Steel Cable up to 12.7mm (Cam-Assisted)

The FELCO C112 is a masterpiece of mechanical engineering, designed for professionals who require maximum cutting power with significantly reduced physical effort. This heavy-duty tool features a cam-assisted power transmission system that multiplies the force applied to the handles, making it much easier to shear through 12.7mm (1/2 inch) steel cable compared to traditional cutters. Utilizing FELCO’s legendary triangular cutting action, it ensures the cable is never crushed or splayed, preserving the integrity of the wire strands for immediate terminal fitting. Built with Swiss precision and industrial-grade materials, the C112 is the ultimate choice for high-repetition industrial cutting and heavy-duty rigging.

Best For Industrial professionals, utility workers, and riggers who perform high-volume cutting of heavy steel cable and require a power-assisted tool to reduce hand and arm fatigue.

Key Features

• Cam-Assisted Power System: The integrated cam-leverage mechanism significantly increases the cutting force, allowing the user to slice through high-tensile 12.7mm cable with a fraction of the effort required by standard tools.

• Superior Triangular Cut: FELCO’s signature triangular cutting technology wraps around the wire to shear it cleanly from the outside in, maintaining the cable’s round profile and preventing fraying.

• Induction-Hardened Blades: The cutting head is manufactured from premium quality hardened steel, specifically tempered to maintain a sharp edge even when used on the toughest high-tensile spring wire and stainless steel cable.

• Unbreakable Forged Handles: Features high-strength forged aluminum alloy handles that provide a lightweight yet incredibly robust frame, finished with a non-slip, ergonomic coating for a secure grip.

• Swiss Serviceability: Designed for a lifetime of heavy industrial use, the C112 features adjustable blade alignment and fully replaceable components, ensuring consistent precision for decades.
