Next-generation aviation snips address common user frustrations

Milwaukee Tool has introduced a new line of aviation snips designed to address user frustrations. The snips offer improved ergonomics, handles, and locks.

Each of the new tools is made with forged blades and chrome plating for maximum rust protection, tool strength, and durability. According to the manufacturer, forged blades provide up to 10 times more cuts than other blades on the market.

An enhanced bolt lock ensures the blades won’t loosen and can stand up to the demands of the job site. For more security during storage and easier opening, a one-handed metal lock allows the user to open and close the snips with one hand. Thumb and forefinger resting points provide more control for pushing through sheet metal with ease.

The cutter heads feature flush bolts to prevent the tool from getting hung up on sheet metal during cutting, and the handles feature lanyard holes for easy tethering.
