The Milwaukee Left Cutting Aviation Snips are designed for precision and strength. Ideal for straight or left-curve cuts, these snips feature forged serrated blades that cleanly cut through tough materials like 22-gauge stainless steel and 18-gauge cold-rolled steel. A bolt lock mechanism and flush pivot bolt ensure smooth, snag-free operation, while chrome plating protects against rust. The 10-inch length gives leverage without being unwieldy; at about 1 lb, they’re rugged yet manageable. For convenience and safety, there is a one-hand applied metal lock, ergonomic grips, and a lanyard hole for secure storage. Great for sheet metal work, ducting, roofing, and industrial applications where repetitive cutting and durability are essential.
