5.0 out of 5 stars Minha Melhor Compra na Área de Elétrica
Reviewed in Brazil on October 20, 2023
Pesquisei bastante antes de comprar, todas as avaliações que vi eram referentes ao modelo "Decapador".

Ao pesquisar por preços e o melhor lugar pra comprar, acabei caindo nesse modelo chamado "Eletricista".

Sinceramente, não entendo porque há tão pouca informação sobre esse alicate, pois até agora não encontrei defeitos.

Corta fios mais macio que manteiga, corta barra roscada com precisão. Crimpa os terminais de forma satisfatória, decapa os fios sem esforço, cabo agradável pra se trabalhar...

Logo, se você é um profissional que passa o dia decapando fios, o modelo Decapador realmente pode fazer diferença. Mas se você realiza diversos serviços de elétrica, e não quer ficar carregando três ou 4 tipos de alicate, esse é uma escolha muito boa.
