Klein Tools 63020 Klein-Kurve Multi-Cable Cutter (7")

The Klein Tools 63020 Klein-Kurve Multi-Cable Cutter is a highly versatile, 7-inch precision hand tool engineered for multi-purpose cable cutting, stripping, and shearing. Designed with multiple hardened steel, precision-ground cutting zones, it handles a wide variety of coax, copper, and mild steel conductors. The curved copper cutting blade shears round cable cleanly to prevent compression and eliminate frayed ends, ensuring an optimal profile for termination.

Constructed for ease of use and long-term durability, the tool incorporates a coil spring for quick self-opening action, double-dipped grips for ergonomic comfort, and integrated holes for efficient wire looping and bending. A reliable locking mechanism prevents accidental opening or closure during transport and storage. Made in the USA.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Can the Klein 63020 be used on live electrical circuits?

A: No, this multi-cable cutter is not insulated. The double-dipped grips are for comfort only and provide no protection against electrical shock.

Q: Will the curved cutter crush or deform cables during a cut?

A: No, the curved cutting blade is specifically designed to cleanly cut round cables (including RG-6 Quad, RG-59, and RG-62) without compression or frayed ends, ensuring proper preparation for connector installation.

Q: Is this tool suitable for copper-clad steel (CCS) cable?

A: No, attempting to cut CCS coaxial cable can damage the precision-ground blades. It should only be used on the supported copper, aluminum, mild steel, and stainless steel diameters listed in its specifications.
