Tronex 5112T Hard Wire Cutter – Tungsten Carbide Oval Flush Cutter for Thick Hard Wire

The Tronex 5112T Hard Wire Cutter is a Class T precision cutter engineered for cutting thicker hard wire used in medical device manufacturing and other demanding precision applications.

Its oval head provides additional strength and rigidity while the flush cutting edge delivers clean, controlled cuts. The dual-material construction combines a high-strength carbon steel body with solid tungsten carbide cutting edges to provide exceptional durability when cutting materials that may quickly wear conventional precision cutters.

The 5112T is rated to cut steel wire from 0.008"–0.025" (0.20–0.65 mm / 32–22 AWG) and is commonly selected for cutting thicker stainless steel, Nitinol memory wire, tungsten wire, and other high-strength materials used in medical device manufacturing.
