Stanley FATMAX aviation snip straight cut 250mm with forged chrome molybdenum blades and belt holster
Forged blades built for sheet metal work:
The cutting blades are forged from chrome molybdenum alloy steel, giving them the strength and edge retention needed for repeated cuts through metal without deforming. The serrated jaw design grips sheet material as the blades close, preventing the workpiece from riding up or slipping during the cut.
Compound action reduces hand fatigue:
A double-pivot compound cutting action multiplies the force applied through the handles, allowing the snip to cut through up to 18-gauge (1.2mm) cold-rolled steel or 23-gauge (0.7mm) stainless steel without excessive effort. The bi-material ergonomic handles provide a firm, comfortable grip throughout repeated use on site.
One-handed latch and adjustment-free fasteners:
The automatic latch releases with a single squeeze of the handles, so the snip can be opened and readied for use without putting the tool down or using a second hand. Adjustment-free fasteners hold the blade pivot securely and prevent the blades from working loose over time, maintaining consistent cutting alignment.
Yellow colour coding - straight cut and wide curve:
The yellow handle colour follows the industry-standard coding system, identifying this snip as suited to straight cuts and wide curves in sheet material. Compatible materials include aluminium, sheet uPVC, wire mesh, leather, copper, and plastic in addition to cold-rolled and stainless steel.
