Review on Heavy Duty Ratcheting Cable Cutters - Easily Cut Electrical Wire Up To 400Mm² With Yangoutool! by Justin Anderson

Revainrating 3 out of 5

It cuts well in my review

I like the tool generally. I am removing a lot of electrical wire through out a house that is being renovated.The one aspect that I am uncomfortable with is the release for resetting the cutting blade. Once you have made a cut, to return the cutting blade it its original position. There is a button to depress. It is very hard to depress that button sufficiently in order to return the blade to its original cutting position.

Pros
  • Great for the price.
Cons
  • Can only cut one wire at a time

A good concept but it’s junk! This cut 4/0 copper cable 3-4 times max before the blades got dull. When that happened the strands jam making it a helluva problem clearing the mess out of the tool, resulting in a very unclean cut. Actually it was a monster to unjam the uncut cable. Better to use a hacksaw or try staring at it. Bottom line is the blades are not hardened steel and can’t be sharpened. Evidence is the cutting edges are painted black. A waste of money and time. Buy this and you’ll regret it unless cutting noodles.
