Plato 170 Cutting Pliers Review
The Plato 170 Cutting Pliers are a practical accessory for vapers who use rebuildable atomisers, RDAs, RTAs or rebuildable coil decks. They are designed to give a clean and controlled cut when trimming coil legs, preparing wire, or tidying up wick material during a rebuild.
The small cutting head makes them especially useful for working in tight spaces around build decks, helping you trim excess wire neatly after installing a coil. Their 1mm maximum cutting diameter makes them best suited to standard vape wire and small rebuildable materials rather than thicker cables or heavy-duty cutting jobs. You can pair them with other vape accessories to complete your rebuildable toolkit.
Who Are Plato 170 Cutting Pliers For?
The Plato 170 Cutting Pliers are ideal for rebuildable vape users who need a simple, accurate tool for coil building and maintenance. They are suitable for users of RDAs, RTAs and rebuildable tank sections who regularly cut wire, cotton or fibre as part of their setup.
