Tools and Hardware Reviews of Xuron 170-II Micro-Shear Flush Cutter

Customer Review: Broke Mine
Summary: 5 Stars

I did not pay attention to this product description:

"Capacity: 18 AWG"

That means it should not be used to cut thicker than 18 gauge wires. I however cut 16 AWG many times (no problems) and then attempted to cut a 20+ bundle of 16 gauge wires at once. One of the two shears snapped off.

Xuron sent me a replacement for free. Feeling guilty that I cost them money due to my irresponsibility, I decided to buy another Shear cutter (an LX model, which is stamped out of thicker metal and is heat-treated to a higher hardness. It's designed to cut 16 AWG wires). Very happy with their products and service.

The LX model is physically the same size as this 170-II. The LX weighs 54 grams and the 170-II weighs 49 grams. I can't feel the weight difference in my hand. I'd probably recommend the LX as it costs less than three bucks extra.

Description of Xuron 170-II Micro-Shear Flush Cutter

The 170-II Micro-Shear flush cutter provides shear cutting action that reduces cutting effort by approximately 50% as compared to conventional compression type wire cutters and produces a flat, flush cut. The advantage of reduced cutting effort is further enhanced by our ergonomically shaped, non-slip Xuro-Rubber grips, glare-eliminating black finish, and light weight. Its slim profile increases access in high density areas. Flush cuts soft wires up to 20 AWG (0.8 mm).
