• Powerful, handheld pneumatic metal cutting shear cuts through aluminum (1.6mm) and steel (1.2mm)
  • Pistol grip provides comfortable use and the muffled exhaust reduces noise during operation
  • Ideal for cutting ferrous and non ferrous sheet metals, rubber and plastics without deformation of edges and can cut angles, squares, circles with ease
  • Connects easily to an air compressor with 3/8” hose size and 1/4" NPT inlet; includes planetary cage gearing for heavy-duty use for industrial or household work
  • Great for ductwork and auto body repair; blades are also easily replaceable

Works better than expected. This was purchased to cut thin aluminum sheet, for trailer skin repairs. It does that very well. But I wanted to see if it would do thicker aluminum and I was pleasantly surprised.

Laugh at the hardware cloth you need to cut! Your hands will never ache from the repetitive cutting with aviation snips! This tool is a must if you are cutting any hardware cloth. I can't believe I didn't know of this product previously.

For all the types that are out there, at a wide variety of prices, this was the best price around. Two fixed blades and one active center blade give nice, smooth, almost burr-free, edges. I was not familiar with this type until I used this one. Be aware that, to give that nice clean cut, this shear produces a thin strip of waste between the two halves produced. You need to pay attention to the desired line and which side of that line you wish to use. This is a characteristic of the tool, not a fault or complaint. I arrived at this choice after some research. It compliments my air chisel set nicely. You can't get such a nice fine edge with a chisel. I'm happy and recommend this product.

Works as expected. Only had it 6 months, but oil it routinely and it's running wonderfully through 16g steel

First of all wear safety glasses and leather gloves. This worked well. I used it to cut up our pool. The only drawback is make sure you have a good quality air compressor. I have a craftsman one and I would need to let pressure build up during a cut.

Recently had to cut some corrugated sheets for a rustic bath. Too thick to do by hand especially give the amount of cutting.. The Neiko is very easy to use - no need to practice. It does use some air - cfm and psi. I was able to make it work off my portable pancake cutting 30" at a time - no sweat.

Works great. Used it to cut 18ga steel. Nice straight lines, easy to use. Seems to be very good quality.

Cut a mile of ribbed sheet metal while building a barn. (At least 30 sheets but cross and rip cuts) Worked great and I was even able to cut up and over the ribs with some effort. Cuts the flats like butter even at the end of the job. Worth every penny.

Does a good job, I use it for aluminum body panels for trailers. I use it a few times a week and never have any problems with it.

works GREAT! EASY TO MAKE STRAIT CUTS also clean cuts using it is fun on to my next project
