Prevent Damage To Printed Circuit Boards By Using Wire Cutters With Lead Retainers
When trimming lead wires from printed circuit boards, the last thing you want is to have the cut-off wires flying back onto the PCB and potentially causing damage. Solution — Xuron® MIcro-Shear® Flush Cutters with Lead Retainers.
The Lead Retainer is a low profile metal “clip” that is installed during the manufacturing process.
The Mystery of the Micro-Shear® Flush Cutter
“The cutting edges don’t line up, is this tool defective” ? This is the single most frequently asked question (with regard to our Cutters). The answer is, No, this tool is just as it should be and the benefit is in the results.
When you see that the cutting edges don’t align perfectly, what you are noticing is Xuron Corp.’s Micro-Shear® blade bypass cutting method. Rather than two sharp edges meeting perfectly, our cutting edges are designed so that one slightly bypasses the other for a shearing type of cut. This graphic that is printed on our packaging sleeve illustrates how it works:
Yes, we can customize
Anyone who uses tools knows how important it is to have the correct tool for job — and this can mean that occasionally tools have to be customized to meet the needs of the application.
Xuron Corp.’s engineering and product development team will be happy to discuss custom configurations and/or new products concepts.
