The Milwaukee 10.65 in. L Red Electrician Snips are engineered for professional electricians who demand precise, dependable cuts in tight spaces. With a long reach and a solid, non-insulated design, these snips are built to handle insulation, jacket trimming, and small-diameter conductors when the power is off, helping you move quickly through panels, conduit runs, and crowded work areas.
-
Long-reach performance at 10.65 inches delivers enhanced leverage and access in cramped electrical boxes and behind panels, reducing the need to reposition your workpiece.
-
Durable, sharp blades provide clean, accurate cuts through insulation and light-duty conductors, minimizing frayed edges and rework.
-
Non-insulated by design (not for live lines) — a clear cue that these snips are intended for use when circuits are de-energized, prioritizing control and reliability on the job.
-
Non-cushion grip handles offer a direct, tactile feel and rugged durability preferred by tradespeople who value immediate feedback and precise control.
-
Vibrant Milwaukee red visibility on the jobsite helps you spot tools quickly in busy environments.
-
Carded packaging includes one tool per card, making it easy to stock up or swap out on a bench or van shelf.
Who this is for: electricians, electrical installers, and maintenance technicians who work in panels, outlets, and conduit where clean, controlled cuts are essential. Ideal for trimming insulation close to terminals, removing excess jacket material, and preparing wires during installations or repair work.
Why choose these over generic snips? Milwaukee’s design prioritizes leverage, blade alignment, and cut accuracy in a tool sized for professional use. The extended 10.65-inch blade length reduces hand fatigue during repetitive cuts, while the sturdy construction resists flexing in demanding environments. This is a purpose-built tool that complements your toolkit when you need reliable performance without the frills of insulated protection.
Tips for optimal use:
- Use in an energized-off scenario to ensure clean cuts and reduce the risk of accidental contact with live components.
- Keep blades clean and dry after use to preserve edge integrity.
- Store with blades closed and in a dry location to prevent corrosion over time.
