Wire Cutter (Product Code: SCL-306/051) is a pair of steel pliers used to grip, twist, bend and cut wire and cable during physics and electrical laboratory work. Students and lab assistants use it to prepare connecting wires and resistance wire, and its insulated handles give a firm, comfortable grip. It is supplied by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), Ambala, India, as one of the everyday physics lab instruments that schools in India need on every electricity bench.

Most electricity practicals start with wire preparation: cutting connecting wire to length, twisting and bending the ends so they clamp neatly under terminal screws, and trimming resistance wire for meter bridge or potentiometer work. The jaws of the wire cutter grip and shape the wire while its cutting edges snip it cleanly.
Cut only with the power disconnected. The handles are insulated for grip, but no voltage rating is stated, so the tool must never be used on live circuits. Hold the offcut so it does not fly, wipe the tool after use and keep it in a drawer or tool kit to protect the cutting edges.
Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited, trading as ScienceLab, supplies this wire cutter from Ambala, Haryana, with the wiring accessories that go with its physics apparatus. Schools setting up electricity benches often order hand tools together with wires, keys and meters so that each bench is ready to use on arrival. See the ScienceLab company profile for more about the company.

What is the Wire Cutter made of?
The Wire Cutter (SCL-306/051) is made from high-grade steel with a corrosion-resistant surface and insulated handles. The steel jaws and cutting edges handle the connecting wire and resistance wire commonly prepared in school physics laboratories.
What jobs can the Wire Cutter do?
The Wire Cutter is used for gripping, twisting, bending and cutting wire and cable. In a lab that means trimming connecting wires, shaping loops for terminal screws and cutting lengths of resistance wire for electricity experiments.
Can the Wire Cutter be used on live circuits?
No. No voltage rating is stated for the insulated handles of the Wire Cutter, so switch off and disconnect the supply before cutting or bending any wire. Treat the insulation as a comfortable grip, not as electrical protection.
How do I keep the Wire Cutter in good condition?
Keep the Wire Cutter dry, wipe it after use and store it closed in a drawer or tool kit. Cut only wire and cable; hard objects such as nails or screws can nick the cutting edges and spoil a clean cut.
Who supplies the Wire Cutter?
Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab) of Ambala, Haryana, India supplies the Wire Cutter. It can be quoted together with wires, keys and meters for electricity benches in schools and colleges across India and international markets.
Can I order Wire Cutters for a whole lab?
Yes, the Wire Cutter can be quoted in quantity for a whole lab or several schools. Send the product code SCL-306/051, the number required and the delivery address through the ScienceLab contact page to receive a quotation.
