StewMac Fret Cutter, Specially Hardened Steel Jaws, Custom Designed for...

Description

Spend less time filing fret ends!This is the best tool for trimming the ends off fretwire. A Stewart-MacDonald exclusive, our custom-made steel cutter has improved features you won't find on hardware store nippers. The jaws are specially hardened for fret work, and they're profiled and flush-ground to cut the wire close to the fretboard. The result is a cleaner cut without pulling the wire, so you'll need less filing. Longer rubber-coated handles allow better access to the frets over a guitar body.1" (25.4mm) jaw width, 8" (203.20mm) length. Works on stainless frets, too!The StewMac Fret Cutter is suitable for use on stainless-steel fretwire. Modern stainless-steel fretwire is known to be harder than the traditional nickel-silver blends, but our own shop experience indicates the wire does not cause premature wear of files or sandpapers.
