Tijera para chapa desplazada Stanley 2-14-567

Stanley FATMAX Aviation Snips Offset are hand shears designed for cutting sheet materials with precision and durability. These offset snips feature forged alloy steel construction and a double-pivot mechanism to deliver high cutting force while keeping the blades away from the work surface for improved clearance. They are intended for use on a variety of materials including mild steel and non-ferrous sheets.

Advantages

The tool is suitable for cutting aluminium sheet, UPVC, wire mesh, leather, copper and plastic. Bi-material easy-grip handles provide comfortable handling and control. The snips cut up to 18 gauge mild steel (approximately 0.7–1.2 mm). Double pivot action increases cutting power, while serrated cutting edges reduce slippage during cutting. A one-handed automatic latch release improves convenience, and the forged alloy steel construction ensures strength and long service life.

Key specifications

• Brand: Stanley FATMAX
• Type: Aviation snips, offset
• Material cut capability: aluminium, UPVC, wire mesh, leather, copper, plastic
• Max steel capacity: up to 18 gauge mild steel (0.7–1.2 mm)
• Blade design: serrated cutting edges

How to use

Hold the offset snips by the bi-material handles and position the workpiece between the blades. Use smooth, steady strokes along the cutting line; the double-pivot mechanism and serrated edges help to maintain control and prevent slipping. For cutting thicker sections within the specified capacity (up to 18 gauge mild steel), apply consistent pressure and ensure the blade is aligned with the cut. Use the one-handed automatic latch to lock the blades closed for safe storage when not in use.

Recommendations

Inspect the blades before use and keep them clean and free of debris. For optimal performance and longer tool life, store the snips dry and avoid cutting materials harder than the specified capacities. Wear appropriate hand protection when cutting and follow standard workshop safety practices.
