Overview
The KEIBA MNC-A05 Micro Nipper Side Cutter Pliers are designed for precision tasks in electronics, hobby crafts, and plastic model making. With a nominal size of 125mm and a blade fabricated from Martroi I (CR-V70C chrome vanadium steel), the tool offers reliable cutting of soft iron wire, annealed copper wire, and stranded wire. The edge benefits from enhanced hardness due to special heat treatment with vanadium, ensuring long-term durability. The ergonomic two-component handle promotes comfortable, steady use during intricate work.
Quality control standards require the tool to successfully cut 0. 8mm enameled copper wire ten times consecutively, demonstrating reliability for repeated tasks. The MNC-A05 supports copper wire cutting (0. 2–2. 0mm), soft iron wire (0. 0mm), and stranded wire (up to 1. 6mm diameter). Manufactured in SANO, Japan, this micro nipper also received the 2004 Good Design Award for its focus on user-friendly shape and material quality.
