The Milwaukee 600 MCM Cable Cutter fits into tight spaces and cuts through large-diameter cable with 5,000 pounds of force, leaving a clean, installation-ready cut. The compact size and scissor-style jaws allow cutting in crowded panels without looping, ratcheting or long arms. Ideal for electricians, datacomm, utility or service contractors or demolition crews, this cable cutter with two speed gear case cuts both large and small cables easily. Powered a 12-volt REDLITHIUMTM Battery, this cable cutter can deliver up to 150 cuts of 500 MCM copper per charge. A built-in L.E.D. light illuminates the line of cut.
