Malco AV8 Left Cutting Vertical Aviation Snips, 90-Degree Forged Steel Jaws for Overhead & Tight Spaces, Cuts 24-Gauge Steel & 28-Gauge Stainless, Red Non-Slip Cushion Grips

The forged steel jaws of these left-cutting snips are set at a 90-degree angle to allow easy gripping when cutting sheet metal in tight spaces or overhead.   The operator can follow tight circular or square pattern left or right cuts with either a pushing or pulling motion.   A serrated edge on the upper jaw and compound head-to-handle linkage provide powerful, non-slip leverage for cutting up to 24-gauge (0. 61 mm) cold rolled steel or 28-gauge (0. 38 mm) stainless.   Handles feature non-slip, cushion inserts, torsion-spring action and a squeeze-open, side operated latch.   Rust-resistant polished forged steel jaws and black oxide finished handle stampings promote long service life.
