Why this one
Crmo steel jaws for lasting sharpness
Built with CrMo steel cutting edges that maintain a clean bite through demanding jobs.
High-leverage design reduces hand fatigue
The mechanical advantage built into the pivot and handle geometry means each squeeze of the grip translates into significantly greater force at the jaw.
Straight jaw geometry for clean linear cuts
The straight blade profile tracks true along scribed lines without pulling the workpiece left or right.
Vinyl-grip handles for secure hold
Yellow vinyl-covered handles give a non-slip grip even when your hands are oily or gloved, and they are easy to spot in a crowded toolbox.
Built for the jobsite
At 250 mm (9.8 in) long and 408 g, this is a straight edge cutter sized to ride comfortably in a tool belt all day.
Read the full description
When you need a clean, straight cut through sheet metal, steel wire, or stainless steel, reach for these Teng Tools high-leverage snips. CrMo steel jaws stay sharp through repeated cuts, and the compound-leverage pivot turns moderate grip pressure into serious cutting force — exactly what you need halfway through a long duct run or a stack of roofing panels.
The straight jaw profile tracks along your scribed line without pulling the material to either side, making it ideal for tin snips for cutting metal sheet on HVAC installs, gutter work, and automotive panel trimming. Steel wire up to 1.5 mm and stainless steel up to 0.9 mm fall within the rated capacity, so you can handle common fastening wire and thinner stainless trim without switching tools.
Yellow vinyl handles are easy to spot and comfortable to grip, even with gloves. Overall length is 250 mm (9.8 in) and weight is 408 g, keeping the tool maneuverable in tight spaces and light enough to carry in a belt pouch all shift. Whether you are a full-time HVAC technician, a roofer, or a weekend fabricator, this is the straight-cut snip that belongs in your kit.
