## Questions & Answers

**Q: what are the min and max diameter wire it cuts?**
A: this is a precision instrument not for general use. I use it for copper wires, but not thicker than 1mm (17-18AWG)

**Q: what is the cutting capacity for brass, stainless, and music wire?**
A: Copper wire only or similar.

**Q: can these be used to cut came lead?**
A: I wouldn't use these for that. You could probably use these if you tried hard enough, but you probably want a pair of snips that are larger than these. These snips are more for cutting small wires.

**Q: Will these cut steel jewelry wire?**
A: These are not mini bolt cutters.  They are wire cutters.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review
*by F***T on 11 May 2019*

Petite pince coupante de très grande qualité. Usinage super précis: pas de filet de lumière qd vous refermez la pince sans appuyer. Le point principal intéressant par rapport à d'autres marques de qualité c'est que la coupe est vraiment à ras. Il n'y a pas de petit chanfrein côté extérieur. Un autre point que je trouve agréable ce sont les branches assez minces avec leur revêtement. Je recommande !
