Keep your hand away from the material being cut.

The handles are angled 90° from the blade so you can cut material from directly above tight spaces.

Make straight and curved cuts in sheet metal—these sets come with three tools for different cutting patterns. Also called aviation snips, they have a double hinge, so they cut with more force and require less effort to squeeze the handles than standard sheet metal cutters.

Prevent waste from flying up as you work. A double blade makes two cuts to create a 7/64"-wide step that peels back, leaving little distortion and smooth edges.

Also known as bulldog snips, these have long handles and short blades for cutting through thick sheet metal with less effort than standard sheet metal cutters.

Handles are angled to keep your hand away from the material as you cut straight lines and curves.

Made from aluminum bronze, the blade and handle on these cutters inhibit sparking and are FM approved. Use them for straight cuts.

Loosen a few screws to swap dull blades with new ones. These cutters have offset handles to keep your hands clear of the metal being cut.

Punch small pieces out of material to create an almost burr-free cut with no material distortion.

Turn your portable drill into a punch cutter for cutting curved and straight shapes in flat and corrugated sheet metal and plastic.
