Check the fit

Confirm the red-handled 11046 model and its stated conductor construction. Klein excludes steel wire and bolts from its cutting use. Choose a tool documented for those materials if needed.

When to choose it

Choose the 11046 if the conductor is stranded and you need a compact tool whose narrow nose fits your work area. The separate 11045 has similar proportions but is marked for a solid-wire range.
