Why this one
Cutting capacity for steel and stainless
These metal shears handle steel wire up to 1.5 mm thick and stainless steel up to 0.9 mm thick, giving you reliable performance on ductwork, flashing, and other thin-gauge materials you encounter on the job site every day without needing to reach for a larger tool.
Cr-mo steel jaws
The jaws are made from Cr-Mo steel, a chromium-molybdenum alloy chosen for its toughness and edge retention.
Bi-material grip design
Two-component handles combine a rigid core with a softer overmold to deliver a secure, comfortable hold even when your hands are oily or gloved.
Compact and lightweight
At only 190 mm (7.5 in) long and weighing just 188 g, this tool fits easily into a back pocket, apron, or compact tool pouch.
Precision straight-jaw geometry
The jaws are aligned for clean, linear cuts, letting you follow a scribed line on flat stock without the material curling or wandering.
Read the full description
When full-size aviation snips are too bulky for the task, reach for this compact Cr-Mo cutter from Teng Tools. Measuring 190 mm (7.5 in) and weighing only 188 g, it rides in a pocket or pouch without dragging on your belt, yet delivers enough leverage to shear steel wire up to 1.5 mm and stainless steel up to 0.9 mm.
The Cr-Mo steel jaws provide excellent toughness and edge life, so you spend more time working and less time replacing worn blades. A precision-ground jaw alignment keeps every pass on your scribed line, producing clean edges that need minimal deburring.
Bi-material handles give you a sure hold in wet, oily, or gloved conditions. The ergonomic shape distributes force across your palm and keeps fingers safely behind the pivot, reducing fatigue and the risk of pinch injuries during repetitive cuts.
Whether you are trimming HVAC ductwork, sizing metal flashing on a rooftop, or notching a bracket at the bench, this compact tool earns its place in your everyday carry. One tool, one job done right.
