Product Overview
The Original Banana Cutter™ Cuts 3/4″ CATV Coaxial Cable
The UP-B76 has four razor-sharp cutting edges and will cut up to .750″ (3/4″) diameter aluminum and copper coaxial cable. This is the ideal hand tool for CATV and telecommunications specialists.

The banana cutter got its name from the distinctly colored yellow plastic dipped cushioned handles. Overall length 8¼ inches. This tool is not designed for cutting steel or ACSR.
