Klein Tools 1104 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Klein Tools 1104 shears cut armored BX cable without crushing the jacket?
Cutting BX is what the 1104 is built around. The shear-type jaws cut through the armor, and there's a cavity in the handle that reforms the cut end of the BX back to its original round shape so the connector and anti-short bushing go on clean. That reshaping step is why electricians keep these in the pouch instead of using a hacksaw on armored cable.
2) Besides BX cable, what else can the Klein 1104 cut on a jobsite?
Four materials are called out: BX cable, sheet metal, steel strapping, and bundling wire. That covers trimming duct and panel sheet metal, cutting the steel banding off a pallet of conduit, and snipping bundling wire, which is why HVAC and general construction crews carry it alongside electricians. There's also a wire stripping notch in the nose for light stripping without switching tools.
3) Is the Klein 1104 insulated for working on live circuits?
No. The handles are plastic-dipped in red for grip and comfort, not an insulated rating. Treat the 1104 as a general cutting tool and de-energize before you cut. If you need hand tools rated for live work, look for Klein's separately listed insulated line rather than the plastic-dipped ones.
4) Can you use the Klein 1104 BX cutter one-handed in a panel or overhead?
Yes. The high-leverage shear design is made for one-hand operation, and the tool weighs 9.6 oz (272 g) with an overall length of 7.625 inches (19.4 cm). That combination is what makes it workable overhead on ladder work or inside a crowded panel where you only have one free hand.
5) What is the exact Klein part number for these BX cable cutters, and is it made in the USA?
Order it as Klein Tools 1104. It is a single-model item with no finish or size options to pick, and Klein states it is made in the USA.
6) Should I buy the Klein 1104 shears or a dedicated armored cable cutting tool?
The 1104 is the right pick when you cut BX occasionally through the day and want one tool that also handles sheet metal, steel strapping, and bundling wire. A dedicated rotary armored-cable cutter is better if you are cutting MC or BX all day in production volume and want a cleaner, repeatable cut on the armor alone. The 1104 trades that specialization for being pocket-sized at 7.625 inches and 9.6 oz.
7) Is the Klein 1104 small enough to carry in a tool pouch all day?
At 7.625 inches overall and 9.6 oz (272 g), it rides in a standard pouch loop without the bulk of a full-size cable cutter. Lightweight matters here because shears get picked up and set down dozens of times a shift.
