Knipex Cutters
Knipex Cutters: Diagonal, Bolt, and Pipe
Knipex cutters in this collection fall into three groups. High leverage diagonal cutters come straight (74 01 and 74 02) or with a 12 degree angled head (74 21 and 74 22) in 8 and 10-inch sizes. CoBolt compact bolt cutters, including the CoBolt S, cut bolts, chain, and rod in a pliers-sized tool. TubiX and TubiX XL pipe cutters and the 90 25 40 PVC cutter handle tube and plastic pipe. You will also find long nose pliers with cutter, the 13 72 8 wire stripper and cutter, and a 4-piece pliers set.
What to Look For
- Head angle. The 12 degree angled diagonal cutters reach flush in tight spaces without bending your wrist.
- Material. Diagonal cutters handle wire. CoBolt handles bolts, nails, and rod. TubiX handles copper, steel, and stainless tube.
- Length. 10-inch cutters give more leverage. 8-inch models fit a pouch.

Knipex Cutters FAQ
Do I need CoBolt or full-size bolt cutters?
CoBolt cutters fit in a tool bag and cut most bolts, nails, and chain a tradesperson runs into. Full-size bolt cutters are for heavy chain and locks. For daily carry, CoBolt is the practical choice.
What warranty do Knipex cutters carry?
Knipex offers a lifetime limited warranty on its tools against defects in material or workmanship, for the original end-user purchaser. Claims need proof of purchase and an RGA. Shipping costs are excluded, and cutters worn out by use or abused do not qualify.
