PiergiacomiTP 30

The Piergiacomi TP 30 Special Cut-and-Bend PCB Pliers 135mm Copper up to O0.6mm is a special forming tool that cuts and bends a component lead against the PCB in one operation.

Technical description

Documented TP 30 specifications are 135mm length, 3kg cutting force and maximum copper-lead diameter of O0.6mm. The current Piergiacomi ESD version TP 30 D uses 3mm steel and the St grip.

Indicative applications

Suitable for through-hole PCB assembly, lead forming and mechanically retaining components before soldering.

Compatibility note

TP 30 performs a combined cut-and-bend action and is not a conventional end cutter. Some catalogues show an inconsistent AWG conversion for the O0.6mm diameter, so this listing uses the confirmed metric diameter.
