The KNIPEX Tools CoBolt S Compact Bolt Cutter features a 6-1/4" length and provides high cutting power to easily cut bolts, nails, and rivets up to 11/64" in diameter. In addition to its compact design, the cutter has a slim head designed for better access to confined areas. The CoBolt S has a strong lever action mechanism that allows the user to exert less effort when using the cutter. Below the joint is a gripping surface for pulling wires with a diameter from 3/64". It also features laser-cut edges on the blades, which prevent material being cut from slipping. The CoBolt S is forged and multi-staged oil-hardened from German and chrome vanadium heavy-duty steel, and has induction-hardened cutting edges with a hardness of approximately 64 HRC for cutting thin hard wire, screws, and springs.
