## Overview

The KNIPEX CoBolt S 71 01 160 is a compact, lightweight bolt cutter engineered in Germany with induction-hardened chrome vanadium steel blades (64 HRC) that cut bolts, nails, rivets, and piano wire up to 4.4 mm diameter. Its efficient lever action minimizes effort, while lasered microstructured edges prevent slipping. Designed for small hands and demanding tasks, it also features a gripping surface for pulling wires and removing nails, making it an indispensable tool for professionals seeking precision and portability.

## Description

From the manufacturer Compact strongman with reliable grip The Knipex CoBolt S 71 01 160 compact bolt cutter cuts soft and hard wire as well as piano wire and is particularly suitable for small hands Small tool, big impact – anyone who is used to working with a standard bolt cutter will appreciate the handiness of the CoBolt S 71 01 160. Thanks to its small size of 160 mm and its low weight of less than 200 g, this strong compact bolt cutter is quickly to hand and is also a powerful partner in demanding situations such as when working overhead. Even the hardest wire is no problem, it reliably handles piano wire up to Ø 3.0 mm. When cutting bolts, nails and rivets up to a diameter of 4.4 mm (medium-hard material), you also benefit from maximum force and comfortable handling. High cutting performance – Made in Germany The high cutting performance is the result of many years of engineering experience.The precision cutting edges made of chrome vanadium heavy-duty steel are induction-hardened and thus ensure the highest cutting edge hardness.The efficient force transmission mechanism ensures very good leverage with very little friction. The CoBolt significantly increases the manual force exerted on the handles. Cuts components such as bolts, nails, rivets, etc. up to Ø 4.4 mm Precision cutting edges for soft and hard wire as well as piano wire Particularly high cutting performance with less effort due to the highly effective joint design Particularly suitable for small hands The microstructuring of the cutting edges holds the material in a convenient position With a gripping surface under the joint for gripping and drawing wires from Ø 1.0 mm The CoBolt does more than just cut, it can also grip and pull The practical gripping surface directly below the pliers joint makes the KNIPEX CoBolt even more versatile. This function enables farmers, landscapers, forest workers, fence builders etc. to grip and pull: Simply grab the wire with the gripping surface, hold the CoBolt like a T-piece and high tensile forces can be applied – e.g. for tensioning wires from a diameter of 1 mm upwards. In addition, the gripping surface can also be used as a lever to remove bent-over nails or staples during construction, drywalling, woodwork, fence construction or demolition work, for example. Lasered cutting edge The microstructures on the cutting surfaces grip the material to be cut in place, preventing it from slipping away. This permits optimal cutting of materials with large cross-sections. Efficient cutting For bolts, nails and rivets up to 4.4 mm in diameter and for all hard and soft wires. Sufficient force The CoBolt even cuts spring wire with considerably less effort than conventional high leverage diagonal cutters. Practical gripping surface The gripping surface below the joint is ideal for gripping and pulling wires and for removing nails.

Review: Great - Great bit of kit well worth having these in your tool bag.
Review: Solid cutters for most jobs. - These are the smallest bolt cutters you can get. They are designed for smaller jobs. I decided to try if they could cut solid steel link chain. The picture speaks for itself. It took multiple attempts but I managed to slowly cut through this material clearly designed for the larger pairs. I therefore think that with a bit of effort, they can cut through pad locks. Was going to buy the larger set but realised these will do the job with a bit of elbow grease. Just look at the jaws of mine. Not even dented the slightest. I am well impressed.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Can I cut short the drawer’s knob screw with it?**
A: I think you would damage the thread if it’s not yet in place and if it’s poking through, you wouldn’t be able to cut it flush. As far as it’s abilities to cut, if it fits in the jaws, it’ll cut it!
