Bolt Cutter
H.K. Porter bolt cutters are designed for cutting padlocks, chains, rebar & wire mesh. They feature cutting jaws with precision ground, alloy tool steel construction for wear resistance & durability, lockplate mechanism for preventing jaw bolts from turning or loosening, screw-adjustment design for realignment of cutting edges for achieving precision cuts, toggle joints for transforming 50 lb hand-pressure to 4000 lb cutting pressure and tabular handles with rubber grips for strength & firm hold. Choose from a wide range of hand-operated cutters in fibreglass and steel handle options on Raptor Supplies.
Working Mechanism
- When users squeeze the handles of these bolt cutters together, their jaws move towards each other and clamp the material to be cut between them.
- As they continue to squeeze the handles, the pivot point of the cutters amplifies the applied force and generates a much greater cutting force at the jaws, allowing the cutter to easily cut through tough materials.
