Snips

Are these snips for metal only?
Primarily, yes – but some models can also handle plastic or mesh. Always check the product description to avoid blade damage.

What’s the difference between left-cut, right-cut and straight snips?
They’re designed for cutting curves or straight lines in specific directions. Choose the type that matches your cutting pattern.

Do snips need sharpening?
Occasionally, yes. If the cut becomes ragged or you see nicks in the blade, sharpening or replacing may be necessary.

How do I ensure a smooth cut?
Keep the snips clean, position the material properly and cut in a consistent motion without forcing the blades.
