Why this one
Crmo steel jaws
The blades are made from CrMo steel, delivering the toughness and edge retention needed to slice cleanly through sheet metal on every cut.
Straight and right cutting geometry
Designed for straight-line cuts and right-hand curves, the jaw profile lets you navigate tight layouts without binding or distorting the workpiece.
Steel wire and stainless capability
Rated to cut steel wire up to 1.5 mm and stainless steel up to 0.9 mm, so you can handle a range of materials beyond ordinary sheet metal.
Bi-material grips for all-day comfort
The handles combine two materials into an ergonomic grip that cushions your hand and resists slipping, even when your gloves are oily or wet.
Compact 250 mm length
At 250 mm (9.8 in) overall, this tool fits easily into a tool belt pouch or apron pocket, keeping it within reach whenever you need it.
Read the full description
Built for tradesmen who cut sheet metal every day, this Teng Tools straight and right-cut tool pairs CrMo steel jaws with bi-material handles to deliver clean, controlled cuts in tight workspaces.
The straight jaw geometry is optimized for right-hand curves and straight-line cuts, giving HVAC installers, roofers, siders, and auto-body techs the directional control they need to follow layout lines without distorting the workpiece. The jaws handle steel wire up to 1.5 mm and stainless steel up to 0.9 mm, so one tool covers ductwork, flashing, wire mesh, and stainless liners.
Bi-material handles absorb vibration and provide a secure, non-slip grip whether your hands are bare, gloved, or wet. At 250 mm (9.8 in) long and weighing 508 g, the tool stays comfortable through extended cutting sessions yet remains compact enough to stow in a belt pouch or apron pocket.
Whether you are trimming galvanized duct, fitting copper flashing, or shaping stainless panels, this right and straight cutter earns its place in your everyday carry. Pair it with a left-cut snip and you have full directional coverage for any metal shears task on the job.
