Faithfull Compound Aviation Snips for Straight Cuts
Built for Sheet Metal and More:
These Faithfull Compound Aviation Snips are designed for straight cutting through sheet steel up to 1.2mm, as well as non-ferrous metals, vinyl, plastic and rubber. At 250mm overall length with a 42mm cut length, they are well suited to ductwork, roofing, flashing and general sheet metal work.
Compound Cutting Action:
Power is delivered to the blades via a double fulcrum compound cutting action, which multiplies hand leverage and reduces the effort required per cut. The Chrome-Molybdenum blades carry a satin finish and are serrated to prevent sheet material from slipping during cutting.
Comfortable and Safe to Use:
Each handle is fitted with yellow PVC grip and a slip guard for hand protection. A strong opening spring returns the blades automatically between cuts, and a safety locking latch holds the snips closed safely when not in use.
