Comments

Mark A. Welch: I bought these and installed about a dozen outlets and a dozen switches. Very easy to handle and work with.

Steve: I initially ordered a cheaper version of these thinking they must all be the same. Not even close. I used the no name brand once and it basically broke. I decided to go with a good known brand, so I ordered these. These work as they should. They will probably outlive me. Save the time and your money and buy a brand name you know and can trust!

Jared: In this price range a lot of tools are knock-off brand equipment that doesn’t seem to last as long and feels cheap but the construction on these feels great. It took care of all my needs for household repair and hobby work and I don’t really feel a need for anything more than this!

McLovin: This has revolutionized my DIY game. From snipping with precision to stripping effortlessly, it's like having a trusty sidekick for all things electrical. This tool is an 8-inch powerhouse of convenience that every toolbox deserves.

Produto muito ruim , não aguenta , qualquer obstáculo que precisar esforçar mais um pouco ela quebra , dinheiro jogado fora, comprei pela marca mais esse produto deixou a desejar: Excelente produto , embora o preço seja mais elevado mas ajuda muito no trabalho, bom.de corte .

Brazil on Jun 12, 2023

Wizo: Use it to for small circuitry and stripping/cutting and wiring 18/20 gauge wires. Good with 10 gauge too other cheap brands tend to take strips of wire along with the outer casing, not Irwin. The cutter is razor sharp and seems it will last a very long time before going blunt. Grip is good for my hands you can get some real pressure when crimping.

My only minor gripe is for a more flatter area on both sides of the insulation crimping zones so i can use it to secure connectors instead of relying on the pliers at the head of the tool.

Overall a must and very handy tool in your toolbox.
