The right choise for
With the Facom 982 compound action snips, you cut smooth right-hand curves, circular contours, and tight shapes in sheet metal with total precision. The powerful lever mechanism significantly reduces hand fatigue, allowing you to slice through steel up to 1.2 mm at 600N/mm² and stainless steel up to 0.8 mm thickness. Its 45 mm forged blades feature fine serrations that grip the sheet securely, preventing slipping and avoiding distorted edges. Non-slip ergonomic handles and a built-in opening spring ensure comfortable, continuous cutting whether you are fabricating hvac ductwork or shaping automotive body panels. With an overall length of 235 mm and standardized green colour coding, you achieve clean, accurate cuts on every job.
