• 250mm (10 Inch) Size: A professional, standard size providing optimal leverage and comfortable operation for extended use.

• Right Cutting Direction: Specifically designed to cut curves to the right, pushing the waste material away from the main piece for clear sightlines.

• Cr-V Steel Blades: Manufactured from Chrome Vanadium steel with a high hardness rating (HRC 55-65) for sharpness and durability.

• Compound Cutting Action: Features a lever mechanism that multiplies hand force, allowing for clean, efficient cutting through sheet metal with minimal effort.

• Up to 2mm Cutting Capacity: Suitable for cutting sheet materials, including light mild steel, copper, and aluminium up to 2mm thick.

Description

These 250mm (10 inch) Aviation Snips are professional-grade cutting tools designed for making precise, curved cuts to the right when working with sheet metal. The blades are manufactured from durable Chrome Vanadium (Cr-V) steel, hardened to a degree of HRC 55-65, ensuring exceptional cutting performance and extended lifespan. They are capable of cutting capacity up to 2mm in thickness, suitable for various metals including mild steel, aluminium, and sheet cladding. The compound cutting action provides significant leverage, making thin metal cutting easier than with conventional snips. They feature comfortable, ergonomic handles (typically red for right-cut) and a safety latch for storage. These snips are essential for roofers, HVAC installers, fabricators, and metalworking tradespeople needing to cut curves and circles in sheet materials.
