Why this one
Crmo steel jaws
Built from CrMo steel for lasting edge retention, these metal shears handle demanding cuts through sheet metal day after day.
Rated cutting capacity
Engineered as a dedicated sheet metal cutter with a maximum rated cut of 1.5 mm in steel wire and 0.9 mm in stainless steel.
High-leverage design
The compound pivot layout acts as a force multiplier, letting you complete long, clean cuts without the hand strain associated with standard-leverage designs.
Left and straight cutting
Straight jaws with a left-cutting bias let you follow layout lines in both straight runs and gradual left-hand curves.
Comfortable grip
Red vinyl-dipped handles provide a non-slip surface that stays secure even with gloved hands.
Read the full description
Teng Tools delivers a high-leverage left and straight cutting snip built for tradespeople who demand precision and durability from every tool in the box. CrMo steel jaws hold their edge through repeated cuts, and the compound-pivot design multiplies your grip force so each squeeze does more work with less effort.
This metal cutting tool is rated to cut steel wire up to 1.5 mm and stainless steel up to 0.9 mm, giving you a clear, published capacity you can trust before committing blade to material. The straight jaw profile with a left-cutting bias handles straight runs and gradual left-hand curves equally well — ideal for HVAC ductwork, roof flashing, gutter sections, and general fabrication.
At 250 mm (9.8 in) long and weighing 393 g, the snip balances reach and control whether you are working at a bench or overhead. Red vinyl-dipped handles cushion your grip and resist slipping, even when you are wearing gloves. The compact footprint lets you stow the tool in a belt pouch or tray without it crowding out the rest of your sheet-metal kit.
Pair this left and straight cutter with a right-cut snip to cover every direction on the panel, or use it as a standalone tool whenever the job calls for straight and left-curving cuts in thin-gauge metal.
