SogYupk USA Ratchet Cable Wire Cutter and Hand Tool Heavy Duty Aluminum Copper Ratchet Cable Cutter for Cutting Electrical Wire Up to 240mm²/9.45Inch Cutter Pliers

These are a great set of cutters. I use these cutters on a regular basis on the job cutting everything from 4/0 wire (although they do struggle a little with that size) to multi-conductor wire that my regular side cuts will not cut. The ratchet is smooth and regular allowing for a fairly even cut while the quick release allows me to cut into the sheathing so that I can crimp my lugs onto the x/0 wires easily because, lets face it, I am cheap, and if I can use a tool for more than one thing that is even better. Something that I am not to fond of with these cutters is the fact that the finger molding on the handles seems to be on the wrong side for my dominant hand, good for lefties though. Definitely not a deal breaker though. I will be recommending these cutters to my boss because the price would allow the company to purchase sets of these for each of the electricians that work in the shop and lets face it, if we don't have to go hunting cutters down from the high voltage guys, that makes us faster at our jobs.

Cuts through 4/0 like butter without needing to be sharpened out of the box, cuts all the way through, and cuts clean. Used on live 120v with 3 overlapped layers of 88 on the handles. Didn’t try cutting ACSR, as they’re not rated for it anyway. Seem built just fine - I would say the cheapest feeling aspect is the release tab, but it’s perfectly adequate. If you’ve got plenty of money to throw at tools, by all means, buy the insulated Klein/Greenlee/Knipex/whatever that cut ACSR too, but for the average working man who needs a set, my advice is don’t hesitate with these! At $30, I’m sure a few lemons escape QC, but I got a good pair.

I use them to cut 6-3 copper and 8-3 cu pVc jacket AIA MC and Teck cable. They work pretty good not super clean cuts and the thin stands can get caught sometimes but great for the price. Would and have recommended them to coworkers

I was looking for a cutter to help with 4/0 alum. wire, and this fit the bill perfectly! Inexpensive and will work great for as many times as I will need it as I don't wire for a living. I am sure it would hold up for many-many large electrical wire cuts, on at least the 200A services. Please refer to the size ranges for size info. On durability gave 4 stars as not sure how many 600 MCM wires it may hold up to.

Cuts effortlessly, will buy again

If you are an electrician this is a good buy. Normally these things cost about $250 on the cheap side. This thing is worth a try if you don’t want to pay for name brand. So far I’ve cut 600 aluminum without issues but have not used it frequently. 3/0 copper multiple times and the thing still works great.

This is an affordable knock off of the more expensive brands. It works, but it isn't so great as I was used to from using other brands. It doesn't cut as well. I tried it on some 500 MCM cable, and it didn't even start to cut. To be fair on that point, it only lists it's capacity at 400 MCM. In spite of these complaints, it is a useful tool. It is worth the $50* I paid for it. Summary: For the price, it is a good tool, but don't expect too much. If you want a better one, you probably should look at the cable cutters in the $200 price range. For example: Klein 63060 Ratcheting Cable Cutter, Red . *When I purchased it the price was forty some plus shipping.

Great wire cutters for extremely thick wire like 3-0 gauge. also kids were interested what it is and what it does and amazingly 8Y old boy was able cut 3-0 gauge wire with it too, of course with much more effort than adult, but he repeated cutting many more times in a row and was still successful. it was used at one 3-0 gauge fuse box installation and then on bunch of cutting by 6/8/10Y old kids cutting the same wire over and over until they got exhausted.......sheers started showing some little wear off. However still very good cutting tool!

I am an Industrial electrician. These work just awesome for cutting tek cables.. Cut a lot of 14/3c, 8/3c, even 2/3c aluminum armoured tek. I was skeptical, but now recommend them to everyone. I wouldnt say that I baby them, but I know they are cheap cutters so I don't try to do anything stupid with them. Tried 500kcmil copper and I wouldn't recommend them for that.. But for 90% of tasks they are more than adequate. People can't believe they were 40 bucks. Gotta keep them tight and clean but for the money, great addition to the bag.

Excelente herramienta, de muy buena calidad, la utilize para cortar cable tipo KC750, la primera vez me costo un poco, pero le di un retoque a las cuchillas con una lima de media caña fina y mejoro mucho para el corte, me costo menos trabajo, y esta a muy buen precio.
