I can tell you these side cutters will easily cut through the clear plastic sprue gates found in scale plastic models, which is usually a bit harder than the plastic found in the rest of the kit. However, extremely hard and wide sprue gates may be harder to cut, and perhaps even chip or break the blades on these cutters. They are intended for removing small parts, and cutting through thin attachment points, leaving clean surfaces at the cut. They are not intended for cutting sheets of plastic or removing large areas of plastic. Hope this answers your question. **Q: Are these stainless steel?** A: Not sure about stainless, but the6 are hardened steel. Mine are kept on my workbench in an un-heated garage, and I live in a damp seaside environment (lots of salt air) and I haven’t seen any corrosion on them. However, I have some stainless tools that have seen corrosion. So, I’d say if that’s what you’re worried about, it’s not a big deal. I do keep most of my steel or alloy based tools well oiled though. But beware, these nippers are designed only for model building plastic sprue gates. Don’t use them on wire or other hardened materials. **Q: Are they spring open like the other sprue cutters?** A: Yes ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great cutters. *by M***Y on 9 December 2025* Good quality. Very sharp. Easy to hold and slip resistant. Easily cuts through plastic or resin. Bit pricey but I don't mind paying for quality. Wish you could lock them closed as their default position is open. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Wow great side cutters a must have for model making *by Y***S on 11 January 2026* Wow total game changer. these are so sharp and cut much closer than my other snips definitely recommend for for aged over 15 only .suitable model makers with small awkward sprues to cut very sharp so beware. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ very sharp *by S***I on 17 June 2025* Really sharp. the quality is tangible. it is very good for plastic sprues. it has a better cut respect to the normal cheap ones. I think it is due to how the blades are organised (Functionally I think there is one blade fixed and one mobile respect to 2 mobiles). perfect size, really easy to use (as expected). ## Frequently Bought Together - Tamiya Sharp Pointed Side Cutter NO.123 (74123) - Tamiya 87038 Extra Thin Cement Glue Fine Tip 40ml - TAM74104 Tamiya Tools - Basic File Set - Smooth Double-Cut --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.pl/products/47871625-sharp-pointed-side-cutter-for-plastic-slim-jaw-74123](https://www.desertcart.pl/products/47871625-sharp-pointed-side-cutter-for-plastic-slim-jaw-74123) --- *Product available on Desertcart Poland* *Store origin: PL* *Last updated: 2026-05-22*
