Cutting a small machine screw (up to standard size #10 or metric size M5 (5mm) Use a pair of multipurpose wire strippers or electricians pliers that feature M2.5, M3, M3.5, M4, M5 threaded holes
These holes are designed for cutting bolts without damaging the thread
Open the jaws and thread the machine screw into the correct size hole to the distance required
Squeeze the tool handles closed and the screw will be cut at the point where the two halves of the jaws come together
You will have a clean cut without any thread damage
Cutting a large machine screw (larger than size #10 or metric size M5 (5mm) This is best done using a hacksaw
Thread the nut on the screw until it reaches the desired point on the head side of the cutting line
Place the screw in a vice or clamp to keep it secure when cutting and cut the screw as straight as you can
When you unthread the nut it will repair and realign any threads that may have been damaged by the saw blade.
