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.

Blades are tapered to give you more control when cutting straight lines, tight curves, and circles, and they're serrated to prevent slipping. These cutters are also known as duckbill snips.

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.

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

Use to cut patterns in flat material with minimal material loss and less effort compared to manual cutters.

Minimize material loss and edge distortion with these scissor-like cutters that cut metal up to 1/64" thick.

Also known as slotting shears, these cutters have a double blade that creates two cuts and a 7/32" wide waste strip that peels back, leaving two smooth edges with little distortion.

Also known as scissor-blade shears, the bottom blade remains stationary while the upper blade moves up and down to cut metal up to 1/64" thick with minimal material loss and edge distortion.

Make long, straight cuts around your facility—these cutters have a 12" blade and are light enough to move from bench top to bench top.

This large-capacity cutter has a 25" blade for long, straight cuts.

Turn your workpiece while cutting to create curves and complex shapes.

These powerful cutters make diagonal cuts with a nipping action to cut extra-hard wire with ease.

Cutters have double hinge that provides high cutting force with low gripping pressure.

A small grip enables one-handed cutting.

These manually operated cutters make a clean cut with just a few pumps of the handle.

An alternative to hacksaws and bandsaws, these cutters use leverage to cut rods cleanly in a single stroke.

Hydraulic-powered jaws cut bolts, wire rope, rods, and electrical cable with low effort and minimal material distortion.

Two-handed strap cutters give you more leverage than one-handed strap cutters.
