The USAG 185 AX is a professional diagonal cutting nippers available in 140 mm and 160 mm lengths. The lengthened and pointed head allows clean, precise cuts even at the extremities of the cutting edges, while the fulcrum positioned closer to the cutting edge reduces the effort required during cutting operations. Induction-hardened cutting edges handle soft, semi-hard and hard wire, and the open hinge with forged joint and ergonomic bimaterial grip make these a practical and durable choice for regular workshop use.

For karting and motorsport use, a good pair of diagonal cutting nippers is one of the most frequently used tools in a paddock kit. Trimming cable ties after routing wiring or brake lines, cutting lockwire, tidying electrical connections, removing old fixings and opening packaging are all jobs that come up constantly during kart preparation and between-session maintenance. The pointed head profile of the 185 AX makes it particularly useful for getting into tight spots where a bulkier cutter would struggle to reach.
