ELORA Tool Catalogue

07 The comprehensive ELORA range of pliers meets the requirements of professional users. The antistatic, ergonomic and slip- resistant two-component handles faciliate safe guidance of the pliers and optimum transmission of force. ELORA ESD pliers are available with the most varied range of heads or jaws. Production specification The plier blanks are hot-forged in separate high- precision special dies within narrow tolerances. The result is a material quality which, because of its molecular structure, is far superior to punched or cold-formed blanks. We align the individual choice of materials according to the different demands of gripping or cutting pliers. Gripping pliers are subject to torsional and bending forces as well as a greater stress on the surfaces and edges. Through the use of carbon steel C45, we achieve the optimum hardness value of 45 HRC. Cutting pliers are highly stressed especially in the area of the cutting edges, apart from the torsional and bending forces. In order to ensure sufficient cutting edge hardness with high flexibility and load-bearing capacity, we use high-alloy steels between carbon steel C 60 and chrome-vanadium. The maximum cutting edge hardness is 65 HRC. For the superior processing of extremely hard or tough materials, we equip a part of our side cutter and diagonal cutter range with carbide cutting edges. These are ideally suitable for cutting through piano wire, nickel wire or diode wire as well as for glass fibre, which are being increasingly used in the electronics and aviation industry. We achieve perfection of form and no-compromise cutting edge sharpness in the traditional hand- grinding process – an impressive finished look through the subsequent surface treatment or surface finishing.
