Description
The Bessey D16S Sheet Metal Straight Cutting Aviation Snips are professional-grade compound leverage snips designed for short straight cuts, notching, and broad curved cuts in sheet metal. Featuring high-grade steel cutting blades hardened up to HRC 59, these durable snips provide reliable cutting performance for metal roofing, sheet metal fabrication, HVAC, plumbing, and general metal construction.
The non-offset cutting head allows precise straight cutting and large-radius curves in either direction. Micro-serrated cutting edges grip sheet metal securely to help prevent slipping, improving control and cutting accuracy. The compound leverage mechanism increases cutting force while reducing the hand effort required for repeated cutting tasks.
Constructed with a durable forged steel cutting head and ergonomic two-component plastic handles, the Bessey D16S is designed for comfortable professional use. Its burnished steel head and galvanized or burnished connecting components provide dependable durability for everyday sheet metal applications.
