Bolt cutters serve to cut metal bars, bolts, steel wire and high-hardness materials in industrial and construction environments. The product group focuses on offset-pivot mechanisms or special lever systems that generate high cutting force and save effort when handling hard materials.
Current models include 24-2100-38RR cutting piano wire 3.6mm diameter, 124-1900 working with C60 steel 4.4mm diameter and leverage ratio over 25% higher than conventional side cutters, plus 97- with induction-hardened CV steel blade reaching 62 HRC to cut materials up to 48 HRC hardness. The ability to cut construction rebar, bolts and piano wire becomes a key criterion when selecting, especially with plain and ribbed rebar of 35 to 45 HRC hardness. Users need to understand maximum cutting diameter, material hardness and leverage mechanism to choose the model suited to specific job requirements.

















Bolt cutters serve to cut metal bars, bolts, wire rope and many high-hardness materials in industrial and construction environments. This product range focuses on generating high cutting force through eccentric-pivot mechanisms or special lever systems, helping users save effort when handling hard materials. Unlike standard diagonal cutters, the models in this range are designed to achieve higher leverage ratios, allowing them to cut through large-diameter steel bars or materials with hardness exceeding standard levels.
In practice, the ability to cut rebar up to what diameter becomes an important criterion when selecting. When working with construction rebar, users typically encounter two main types: plain bar and deformed bar. Their typical hardness ranges from 35 to 45 HRC, and the cutting capacity of the cutters will be evaluated based on that material type. The models currently available in this range include 24-2100-38RR, 124-1900 and 97-, each model carrying distinct characteristics in leverage mechanism, blade material and hardness-handling capability. Users need to understand the maximum cutting diameter specification, material hardness and leverage mechanism to select the model suitable for specific job requirements.
The leverage mechanism determines cutting performance and the level of effort saved during operation. Eccentric pivot or special lever systems help increase the force applied to the cutting edge without requiring the user to grip too tightly. Within the range, model 124-1900 uses an eccentric pivot achieving a leverage ratio over 25% higher than standard diagonal cutters. This allows cutting steel bars up to 4.4 mm diameter with moderate grip force. Model 24-2100-38RR is designed to cut piano wire 3.6 mm diameter, a high-hardness material difficult to handle with standard cutters.
The ability to cut hard materials depends on blade hardness and the force-transmission mechanism. Model 97- is equipped with CV steel blades hardened to approximately 62 HRC, allowing it to cut materials with high hardness.
