Shears and Snips

Snips are hand-operated lever tools for cutting thin sheet metal and other sheet materials. On site they are used for sheet-metal work, flashings and metal cladding, and in the workshop for trimming and maintenance jobs.

Types in the collection

• Tinman's snips with straight, right-hand or left-hand cut
• Aviation snips with compound leverage, for straight or curved cuts in sheet metal
• Scissor-type sheet-metal shears, with plastic-coated handle
• Nibblers and sets of snips with angled blades

The range includes Stanley, Milwaukee, DeWalt, Fervi and Pavan items, as well as A.M.E.S. products.

How to choose

First of all, consider the cutting direction: straight, left or right, depending on the direction in which the cut sheet has to run off. Then consider the thickness and type of material, the length of the blade and the comfort of the grip, especially for long periods of work.
