  • Description

    The Bessey D39ASS-SB Sheet Metal Right Cutting Shape and Straight Snips are professional-grade compound leverage snips engineered for precise continuous straight cuts, right-hand curves, and detailed shape cutting. Featuring an extremely compact forged steel cutting head with a partially countersunk screw connection, these snips provide excellent maneuverability and precision when cutting tight curves and complex shapes in sheet metal.

    The advanced joint assembly incorporates a durable stud bolt, sintered steel disc, and maintenance-free spring for smooth cutting action and long-lasting performance. The sintered disc helps reduce friction within the cutting mechanism, while the robust screw connection improves durability during demanding professional use.

    Designed for improved handling comfort, the D39ASS-SB features a reduced handle opening angle that allows a secure grip and consistent cutting length throughout each stroke. The centrally positioned locking latch enables convenient one-handed operation without changing grip position. Ergonomic two-component handles provide comfortable control during extended sheet metal cutting applications.

    With an overall length of 9 inches and an 18-gauge carbon steel cutting capacity, the Bessey D39ASS-SB is ideal for metal roofing, architectural sheet metal fabrication, HVAC ductwork, plumbing, and general metal construction.

Bessey D39ASS-SB Sheet Metal Right Cutting Shape and Straight Snips

Frequently Asked Questions

What materials can the Bessey D39ASS-SB cut?


The Bessey D39ASS-SB is designed for cutting sheet metal, including carbon steel up to 18 gauge (1.2 mm at 600 N/mm² tensile strength). Actual cutting capacity depends on material hardness and composition.

Can the D39ASS-SB make both straight and curved cuts?


Yes. The D39ASS-SB is designed for continuous straight cuts and right-hand curved cuts. Its extremely compact cutting head allows precision cutting of tight radii and detailed shapes.

What makes the D39ASS-SB different from conventional aviation snips?


The D39ASS-SB features a compact forged cutting head with a partially countersunk screw connection, a low-friction sintered steel joint, and an optimized handle opening angle. These features improve cutting precision, maneuverability, and handling comfort.

What is the benefit of the sintered steel disc?


The sintered steel disc helps reduce friction in the joint mechanism, providing smoother cutting action and reducing wear during repeated use.

What is the difference between the Bessey D39ASS-SB and D39ASSL-SB?


The D39ASS-SB is designed for right-hand curved cuts, while the D39ASSL-SB is designed for left-hand curved cuts. Both models share the same cutting capacity, dimensions, and construction.
