Weller Erem Flush ESD Safe Oval Shape

Weller Cable Cutter, 1.6mm Maximum Cutting Capacity, 127mm Overall Length - 2403E

This cable cutter is a precision tool intended for microelectronic work, providing clean flush cuts on small conductors in controlled work environments. It is designed for technicians and engineers in electronics, electrical, automation and mechanical settings who require Compact cutting performance with electrostatic discharge protection.

Features and Benefits:

• Flush cutting action delivers neat conductor ends
  Oval-shaped jaws reduce slippage when gripping wires
  Special steel jaws maintain edge integrity during repeated use
  ESD-safe construction minimises electrostatic risk to components
  Ergonomic handle reduces hand fatigue during repetitive tasks
  Maximum cutting capacity 1.6mm enables thicker micro leads

Applications

• Suitable for trimming component leads on delicate assemblies
  Ideal for harness and cable preparation in control panels
  Used for fine wire cutting in automated test fixtures
  Can be used for precision trimming in prototype builds

What is the overall tool length and why does it matter?

It measures 127mm overall, offering Compact reach for confined spaces and improved manoeuvrability on densely populated boards.

What are the jaw dimensions and how do they affect accuracy?

The cutting jaws are 0.7 in long and 0.4 in wide, providing a small contact area for precise positioning and reduced risk of damaging adjacent components.

Which materials are used in the jaws and handles?

The jaws are MADE from a specialised steel for durability and edge retention while the grip is formed from an ergonomic material to support sustained use.

Is the tool appropriate for use with sensitive electronic assemblies?

Yes
the tool is ESD-safe, which helps prevent electrostatic damage when working near static-sensitive parts.

What cut style does it produce and what is the impact on post-cut work?

It produces a flush cut, leaving short ends that simplify subsequent soldering or assembly without additional trimming.
