Ideal Industries Debuts Big Kahuna Power Blade

Ideal Industries debuted the newest member of its PowerBlade line of professional-grade cable cutters – the Big Kahuna Power Blade.

Featuring a 3.5-inch jaw opening, the Big Kahuna Power Blade makes easy work of cutting large diameter copper and aluminum electrical cables, resulting in clean, installation-ready cuts on high-voltage cables up to 1250 MCM in less than 20 seconds. These large cables are commonly deployed in industrial plants, by electrical utilities for primary or secondary transmission, and in underground service of 600V or more.

The Big Kahuna Power Blade attaches onto any 12 volt or higher drill so that cutting is effortless. Its contoured blade design minimizes cable distortion, while the adjustable torque arm holds the drill perfectly in place. 800.435.0705, idealindustries.com
