Total cutting pliers

Begin by selecting the cutting style that fits your project: diagonal cutting pliers are ideal for snipping wires and small fasteners, while end cutting pliers handle flush cuts at the end of profiles. The TOTAL lineup includes 7‑inch diagonal cutting pliers (THT1776P, THT27716S) and 6‑inch cutting pliers (THT230612). For heavier or insulated work, the 8‑inch insulated pliers (THT260702) and the high‑leverage 7‑inch models (THTC510706) offer extra leverage, while 5‑inch variants provide compact control for tight spaces.

High‑leverage cutting pliers significantly reduce effort thanks to their enhanced mechanical advantage. The TOTAL High‑Leverage Cutting Pliers 7 Inches (Model THTC510706) demonstrate this with a claimed 65% reduction in required hand force, making it easier to cut through tougher materials. This helps you work longer with less fatigue on demanding tasks, such as thick wires or metal pieces, while still delivering clean, precise cuts.

Choose insulated pliers for tasks where electrical safety is a concern; the insulated 8‑inch combination pliers are designed with safety in mind for handling in electrical or mixed‑material environments. In non‑electrical projects, standard diagonal or end‑cutting pliers from TOTAL offer quick cutting performance without the extra insulation. Always select the tool based on whether insulation is required for your specific task, and inspect insulation condition regularly.

Yes, TOTAL offers a range of sizes from compact 5‑inch to robust 8‑inch pliers to fit different hands and tasks. Examples include 5‑inch cutting pliers, 6‑inch cutting pliers, 7‑inch diagonal pliers, and 8‑inch insulated pliers. The variety lets you choose models tailored to tight spaces, delicate components, or heavy‑duty cutting, ensuring better control and precision in professional workshops or home projects.

For professional settings, opt for heavy‑duty or high‑leverage variants such as the 7‑inch heavy‑duty diagonal pliers and the 7‑inch high‑leverage models to maximize cutting power and reduce fatigue. For hobby or light‑to‑moderate tasks, standard 6‑inch or 5‑inch diagonal or end‑cutting pliers provide ample performance with easier maneuverability. The broad model range—from 5 to 8 inches and including insulated options—supports diverse tasks from electronics to light metalworking.

TOTAL cutting pliers are versatile tools designed for precise cuts across various materials, including wires and small metal pieces. Diagonal cutting pliers excel at trimming protruding wires, while end cutting pliers are suited for flush cuts at the end of profiles. The insulated variants enhance safety in electrical tasks, and high‑leverage models offer extra cutting power for tougher materials, making these pliers suitable for electronics, light metalworking, cabinetry, and general workshop use.
