In a nutshell
The right choise for
With the Facom 985.ST straight cut aviation snips, you cut sheet metal cleanly and accurately with minimal hand fatigue. The compound leverage mechanism with a built-in opening spring delivers maximum cutting power for continuous work. Forged from chrome-molybdenum steel, the 55 mm blades feature fine serrations that prevent sheet metal from slipping during cuts. Measuring 250 mm in total length, these snips handle semi-hard steel up to 1.2 mm and stainless steel up to 0.8 mm thick. The ergonomic bi-material grips with yellow colour-coding ensure optimal control on straight cuts and wide curves, while the integrated latch locks the jaws safely for storage.
