The CK Tools T39071-3180 RedLine VDE CombiCutter 3 MAX is a professional 180mm insulated combination side cutter designed specifically for electricians who need more than a standard pair of cutters. Combining wire cutting, wire stripping, wire bending and screw shearing in one compact tool, it helps speed up installation work while reducing the number of tools carried on site. VDE approved and individually tested to 10,000V, it is suitable for working on or near live electrical equipment up to 1,000V AC, making it an essential addition to any professional electrician's toolkit.
Built from drop-forged, hardened and tempered special alloy steel, the CombiCutter 3 MAX features induction-hardened cutting edges for exceptional durability and cutting performance. Dedicated 1.5mm² and 2.5mm² wire stripping notches, a wire bending anvil, and integrated 3.5mm pattress screw and 4mm conduit cover screw shears allow installers to prepare cables and accessories quickly without damaging threads or conductors. The extended 180mm handles provide increased leverage, making repetitive cutting easier and reducing hand fatigue.
Whether installing sockets, switches, conduit systems, consumer units or commercial electrical installations, the CK T39071-3180 delivers multiple essential functions in one robust, insulated tool.
