Tronex 50 Degree Small Oval Flush Tip Cutters - 5082 and 7082

Reach fine wire in crowded assemblies with a compact cutting head angled at 50 degrees. The small oval head combines a durable profile with relief for improved visibility, helping you position the cutting edges around closely spaced components.

Cutting edges at the tips provide access to confined cutting points, making these cutters useful for electronics assembly, precision wire trimming, and jewelry work involving soft copper headpins. Flush cutting edges feature a very small bevel that leaves only a slight pinch on the wire end.

Choose standard handles for a shorter tool or long ergonomic handles for a larger gripping area. Both models are manufactured in the USA from hardened carbon steel and feature double-sheathed, ESD-safe cushioned grips.

Features and Benefits

• 50-Degree Angled Head: Provides an alternative approach when surrounding components restrict access to the cutting point.

• Small Oval Cutting Head: Combines a compact profile with durability for detailed wire cutting.

• Relieved Head Profile: Improves visibility around nearby components for more precise positioning.

• Flush Cutting Edges: Produce close cuts with only a slight pinch remaining on the wire end.

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

• Two Handle Options: Choose standard or long ergonomic handles to suit your grip preference.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between the 5082 and 7082?

The 5082 has standard handles and measures 4.9 inches overall. The 7082 has long ergonomic handles and measures 5.9 inches overall. Both models have the same cutting head, Flush edges, and soft copper wire capacity.

What is the advantage of the small angled head?

The 50-degree angle helps you approach cutting points in confined areas, while the small oval head and relieved profile improve access and visibility around nearby components.

Are these Flush or Razor Flush cutters?

Both models have Flush cutting edges. A very small bevel leaves a slight pinch on the cut end. Razor Flush edges have no bevel and leave virtually no raised material.

What wire sizes can these cutters handle?

Both models are rated for soft copper wire from 0.008 to 0.030 inch in diameter. The specified wire gauge range is 32 to 20 AWG. This rating does not establish suitability for steel, memory wire, or other harder materials.

Are these cutters suitable for trimming headpins?

Yes, for soft copper headpins within the specified capacity. The angled head and tip-positioned cutting edges help reach cutting points in tight jewelry assemblies.

Are both handle options ESD safe?

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

Where are these cutters manufactured?

Both the Tronex 5082 and 7082 are manufactured in the USA.
