Why are special scissors needed to cut Kevlar(R).
Kevlar is a synthetic material used in Fibre Optic Cable to protect it as its strength protects the cable from damage and kinking and its flexibility cushions the fibres as they are being pulled through ducts an between floors.
It has a tensile strength of about 8 times more than that of steel wire and is relatively light for its strength. It also has a high resistance to heat and abrasion.
The scissors are used to trim the excess optical fiber and aramid fibers. With blades made of hardened steel, they ensure long-term use. Compact size and low weight.
