Simply better. Clever solutions for cutting work Tin Snips and Shears to Cut Sheet Metal with Precision (September 2020)

BESSEY Cutting Technology 3. Right cutting or left cutting snips. What is the difference? Shape and straight cutting snips In standard tin snips, edges and handle are traditionally forged into one unit. The force required for cutting is determined by the ratio of edge length to the handle length. Compound leverage snips Shape and straight cutting snips are real "all-rounders". They can cut through a metal sheet (straight-cut) as well as cut large and small contours or radii (outlinecut). In this case, it does not matter whether you are cutting at the edge (edge cut) or at the centre of a sheet....

Simply better. 4. Grades The service life of edges depends directly on the grades of steel used and processing. High-performance snips with case-hardened HSS-edges particularly fulfill the most stringent requirements regarding the service life and consistent cutting performance. C utter heads of the HSS-TiN grade are additionally coated with extremely hard titanium nitride that reduces wear and tear. Other cutting materials, namely special high quality steel, high quality steel and standard quality steel, are available depending on the application and the frequency of use. min. Durability hardness...

The latest generation of leverage snips Low-fatigue continuous cutting Frictionless robust The shape and straight cutting snips D39ASS are particularly smooth running and extremely wear-resistant: Q due to sintered steel insert in the joint area Q due to permanent threaded connection of the joint area with stable stud bolt Q due to stainless steel panel over the joint for protecting the spring beneath Effort-saving It is possible to use the complete cutting length with every cut: Q due to a significantly reduced handle opening angle Easy to use Right and left-handed users can lock and unlock...

Compound leverage snips Your versatile partner Simply better. Your benefits at a glance: 1 Extremely compact cutting head The design of the uniquely compact design head offers one tremendous manoeuvrability, the ability to cut the narrowest radii and the ability to reach some of the most difficult to access spots. 2 Practicable combination of bar and arrester A practical locking mechanism allows one to open and close with one hand and limits the maximum opening of the snip. 3 Compound leverage Compound leverage considerably reduces the effort required. Improving productivity while reducing hand...

High-performance snips with HSS edges Longer lasting and great performance Your benefits at a glance: 1 Longer service life Tempered drop-forged cutting heads have hardened HSS inserts for a much longer service life and performance than conventional snips. Even when cutting the harder metals like stainless steel. 2 Compound leverage Compound leverage considerably reduces the effort required. Improving productivity while reducing hand fatigue for the worker. 3 Ergonomic handle The plastic grips on the ergonomically designed handles have soft cushion inserts that further reduce hand fatigue for...
