Tronex Medium Oval Relieved Head Cutters - Flush and Razor Flush

Combine the versatility of an oval cutting head with improved access beneath components and around obstructions. These medium oval head cutters feature a relieved, low-profile design that helps reach cutting points where a standard-profile head may be difficult to position.

Choose Flush cutting edges for a balance of close-cutting performance and edge durability, or Razor Flush edges for a nearly flat wire end with virtually no raised material. Each cutting style is available with standard handles or long ergonomic handles, giving you four options to match your cutting requirements and grip preference.

All four models are manufactured in the USA from carbon steel and feature double-sheathed, ESD-safe cushioned grips. Cutting capacities vary by edge style, so select the model appropriate for your soft copper wire diameter.

Features and Benefits

• Medium Oval Head: Provides a strong, versatile profile for general-purpose soft copper wire cutting.

• Relieved Head Profile: Creates additional clearance for reaching underneath components and into restricted work areas.

• Two Cutting Finishes: Choose Flush edges for close cuts with a slight pinch or Razor Flush edges for a nearly flat wire end.

• Two Handle Options: Standard handles provide a more compact tool, while long ergonomic handles offer a larger gripping area.

• ESD-Safe Cushion Grips: Double-sheathed grips provide cushioned handling for detailed work in static-sensitive environments.

• Razor Flush Edge Protection: The 5123 and 7123 include a built-in set screw stop to help protect their precision cutting edges.

Frequently Asked Questions

Which models are available?

The four options are the 5122 Flush cutter with standard handles, 7122 Flush cutter with long ergonomic handles, 5123 Razor Flush cutter with standard handles, and 7123 Razor Flush cutter with long ergonomic handles.

What does a relieved head do?

A relieved head has a lower profile that provides additional clearance underneath objects and around nearby components. This helps you reach cutting points that may be difficult to access with a standard-profile head.

What is the difference between Flush and Razor Flush?

Flush edges have a very small bevel that leaves a slight pinch on the wire end. Razor Flush edges have no bevel and leave virtually no raised material, making them useful when a nearly flat cut is important.

Do all four models have the same cutting capacity?

No. The 5122 and 7122 Flush models are rated for soft copper wire from 0.004 to 0.047 inch. The 5123 and 7123 Razor Flush models are rated for soft copper wire from 0.004 to 0.035 inch.

Does choosing longer handles increase cutting capacity?

No. Each long-handle model has the same rated capacity as its corresponding standard-handle model. Choose the handle style based on your hand size and grip preference.

Can these cutters be used on steel or memory wire?

The stated capacities apply only to soft copper wire. They do not establish suitability for steel, memory wire, or other harder materials. Use a cutter specifically rated for the material and diameter you intend to cut.

Are all four models ESD safe?

Yes. All four models have double-sheathed, ESD-safe cushioned grips.
