Newark element14 has introduced the CK Ecotronic range of stamped steel pliers, cutters, and strippers that have been designed with electrostatic discharge safety and ergonomics in mind. Each product’s blades feature special tool steel that are hardened for long-term cutting performance, while the handles are designed to dissipate ESD to protect components against failure.
Additional innovations for the Ecotronic series include contoured, dual component handles for comfortable working, and a return spring with smooth action for convenience during repetitive work. The joint is made of a durable, stainless steel rivet and the tools come with a black oxidised finish for corrosion resistance and reduced glare.
The cutters are sharp, with precision-ground cutting edges and a full flush cut. The pliers are ideal for the safe handling of small components in fine applications (e.g microelectronics and precision mechanics), while the strippers are suitable for all common wire insulation types. They feature integrated shears for cutting soft copper wires up to 3mm Ø / 8AWG stranded.
