FAQs
What is the Excelta 9241E used for?
It is a Lazer Line® medium oval-head maximum flush cutter used to trim soft wire and fine components, with a cutting capacity of 0.005" to 0.040" soft wire. It is precision-made for the electronics and bio-medical industries and suits assembly, rework, lab, aerospace, and medical device tasks.
What is the cutting capacity of the 9241E?
The 9241E has a cutting capacity of 0.005" to 0.040" soft wire. Its blades are induction hardened to RHC 63-65 for durable, clean cuts within that range. Staying within the rated capacity helps preserve the cutting edges and the long tool life the oval-head design is built to provide.
Are the grips ESD-safe?
Yes. The grips are soft cushioned foam and are ESD-safe, rated at 10¹⁰ ohms/sq, which helps protect static-sensitive electronic components during handling. Combined with the smooth dual leaf-spring action, this makes the tool well suited to electronics assembly and cleanroom environments where static control matters.
Why does the oval head give long tool life?
The oval head allows the maximum amount of metal behind the cutting edge, which delivers an extremely long tool life. CNC machining keeps the Lazerlok™ joint surfaces precise, further supporting durability. Together with the hardened AISI 52100 carbon tool steel blades, this design is built for repeated, demanding use.
Where is the 9241E made?
The Excelta 9241E is proudly made in the USA. It is part of Excelta's Lazer Line, which is precision-made for the electronics and bio-medical industries, reflecting the brand's focus on high-quality, durable precision hand tools for professional assembly, laboratory, and manufacturing applications.
