Abstract
The wire cutter includes a pair of elastomeric gripping members mounted in the throat of the wire cutter and having closely spaced, opposed, inner faces which extend generally perpendicularly to the cutting plane of the cutting edges and clamp a short segment of wire therebetween as it is clipped from a larger section of wire. The gripping members preferably are made from a polyurethane elastomer and preferably are cast or formed in situ by pouring a liquid mixture of a polyurethane prepolymer and curing agent in the pocket defined by the throat and, in some cases, a mold surrounding the wire cutter jaws.
