DESCRIPTION
These Clarke PRO69 aviation snips offer professional - grade quality at an excellent price. They feature hardened drop - forged chrome vanadium steel blades with serrated surfaces, ideal for cutting sheet metal up to 1.2mm cold - rolled steel or 0.7mm AISI stainless steel. The spring - action handles come with color - coded grips and a safety catch, adding to user convenience and safety. Moreover, they meet European GS standards, and come with a 1 - year manufacturer warranty.
Using these aviation snips is easy. First, make sure the safety catch is off. Hold the snips by the color - coded grips and place the blades on the sheet metal you want to cut. Squeeze the spring - action handles to cut through the metal. Remember, they're designed for sheet metal up to 1.2mm cold - rolled steel or 0.7mm AISI stainless steel, so don't try to cut thicker materials. When not in use, engage the safety catch to prevent accidental cuts. To maintain them, clean the blades after each use to remove any metal shavings. You can also apply a little oil to keep the blades in good condition.
