Greenlee 0952-01 AC/MC Cable Cutter, Serrated Blade
The Greenlee 0952-01 AC/MC Cable Cutter is a purpose-built ratcheting cutter for AC and MC cable up to 1" outside diameter, giving electricians and linemen a fast, repeatable way to cut armored cable on the job. A serrated blade delivers clean cuts through metal-clad and armored-clad cable, while a quick-load clamp system and crank-and-twist action let installers make cuts in seconds instead of fighting with hand tools. Adjustable jaws accommodate cable up to 1" OD, and the tool accepts Greenlee replacement blades so it stays in service call after call.
Key Features
- Cutting Range: Cuts AC and MC cable up to 1" outside diameter, covering the vast majority of armored cable encountered in commercial and residential wiring.
- Serrated Cutting Edge: A serrated blade bites into armored and metal-clad cable jacketing for cleaner, more controlled cuts than a smooth-edge blade.
- Quick-Load Clamp System: Load and reposition cable quickly for repeat cuts, reducing setup time when cutting multiple lengths back to back.
- Adjustable Jaw: Adjustable up to 1" outside diameter to accommodate a range of AC/MC cable sizes with a single tool.
- Crank-Style Operation: A few quick turns of the crank combined with an easy twist of the arm complete the cut, letting electricians and linemen work through cable runs quickly.
- Under-Handle Blade Storage: Convenient storage compartment under the handle holds spare blades so a replacement is always on hand in the field.
- Replacement Blade Compatibility: Use with Greenlee replacement blades Cat #1941-1 or #1941-5 to keep the cutter performing like new.

Why Greenlee?
Greenlee builds cutting tools engineers and electricians rely on for durability and repeatable performance in the field.

Greenlee 0952-01 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What size AC and MC cable will the Greenlee 0952-01 cut?
The 0952-01 cuts AC (armored cable) and MC (metal-clad cable) up to 1 inch outside diameter, and the jaw adjusts across that range so one tool covers the common sizes on a commercial or residential rough-in. Measure the cable over the armor, not the conductor count: anything over 1 inch OD is outside this cutter's capacity.
2) Can I use this cutter on THHN, Romex, or bare copper conductor instead of armored cable?
No. The 0952-01 is a dedicated AC/MC armored cable cutter with a serrated blade made to bite into metal jacketing. For non-metallic sheathed cable or bare copper and aluminum conductor you want a conventional cable cutter or ratcheting cutter sized to the conductor, not this tool.
3) Which replacement blades fit the Greenlee 0952-01 armored cable cutter?
It takes Greenlee replacement blades Cat #1941-1 or Cat #1941-5. There's also a storage compartment under the handle that holds a spare, so a crew can swap a dull blade on site rather than losing the tool for the rest of the day.
4) How does the Greenlee 0952-01 actually make the cut?
Cable loads into a quick-load clamp, then a few turns of the crank plus a twist of the arm finishes the cut. The clamp is the reason it's quicker than hacksawing: you can reposition and repeat cuts without re-fixturing, which matters when you're cutting a stack of MC whips to the same length.
5) Why pick a serrated blade cutter over a standard smooth-blade cable cutter for MC?
A serrated edge grips the spiral metal armor instead of skating off it, so the cut stays controlled and the jacket doesn't deform as much. Smooth-edge cutters are better suited to soft copper and aluminum conductor; for metal-clad and armored-clad jacketing the serrated edge on the 0952-01 is the one that bites.
6) Is the Greenlee 0952-01 the right tool for an electrical contractor cutting MC daily?
That's what it's built for. It's a purpose-built AC/MC cutter rather than a general-purpose hand tool, the blade is field-replaceable with Greenlee #1941-1 or #1941-5, and a spare stores under the handle. For a crew doing rough-in and wiring installation every day, that combination keeps it in service call after call.
7) What is the exact Greenlee part number to order this AC/MC cutter, and where is it made?
Order it as Greenlee 0952-01, the AC/MC cable cutter with the serrated blade. Country of origin is China. Ordering by that number avoids confusion with the blade catalog numbers (1941-1 and 1941-5), which are consumables, not the tool.
