  • Description

    The Bessey D39ASSL-SB Sheet Metal Left Cutting Shape and Straight Snips are professional-grade compound leverage snips designed for continuous straight cuts, left-hand curves, and precision shape cutting. Featuring an extremely compact forged steel cutting head with a partially countersunk screw connection, these snips deliver excellent maneuverability and accuracy for detailed sheet metal cutting applications.

    The advanced joint assembly features a durable stud bolt, sintered steel disc, and maintenance-free spring for smooth operation and long-lasting performance. The sintered disc reduces friction in the cutting mechanism, helping maintain consistent cutting performance during repetitive professional use.

    Designed with ergonomics in mind, the D39ASSL-SB features a reduced handle opening angle that improves grip comfort and allows a consistent cutting length throughout each stroke. A centrally positioned locking latch allows convenient one-handed opening and closing without changing grip position. Two-component ergonomic handles provide a secure, comfortable grip during extended cutting tasks.

    With an overall length of 9 inches and an 18-gauge carbon steel cutting capacity, the Bessey D39ASSL-SB is ideal for metal roofing, architectural sheet metal fabrication, HVAC ductwork, plumbing, and precision metal construction where left-hand curved cuts and excellent cutting control are essential.
