Product Description

The straight cut compound action aviation snip is strong and durable. Its serrated cutting blades cut up to 18GA cold rolled or 23GA stainless steel. With forged chrome molybdenum steel cutting blades, latch design for quick single handed operation, color-coded, bi-material grips for slip resistance, sheet metal snips allow you to cut steel with ease. This product meets or exceeds ANSI standards.

From the Manufacturer

The Stanley FatMax Straight Cut Aviation Snips is the ideal tool for cutting aluminum, vinyl siding, screening, cardboard, leather and copper. The snip's serrated cutting edges prevent materials from slipping during use, and the slip-resistant, bi-material cushion grip ensures a firm, comfortable grip during use. The aviation snip features a double overwind spring for longer life, and a high-leverage, compound cutting design that allows cuts of up to 18-gauge steel. The latch automatically releases with the squeeze of the handles. This straight-cut aviation snip exceeds ANSI standards for cutting performance and durability.

Nice set of general snips!

Reviewed in the United States on July 16, 2016

Verified Purchase

The other day I was puttering around and needed a pair of snips - but I was in the back yard and the closest snips were in my roll-around tool box in the basement. I didn't even have a pair in the garage.

I ordered a Stanley FatMax 9 7/8 inch straight cut pair of snips based on price, reviews, and the name "Stanley". (Not that "Stanley" means "Infallible" but it is a name I recognize and that's a plus to me). Stanley offers a limited Lifetime Warranty on this gadget.

The Stanley performs as advertised; I tried them out on various bits and pieces when I received them and they are just the thing for my tool tote - the one that has "general" tools in it for fixit jobs and puttering.

I like the locking mechanism, and it can be unlocked using one hand.

Speaking of hands, the Stanley has a very nice set of hand grips that should (YMMV) keep your hands fairly comfortable when snipping away on longer jobs.

EDIT 7/18/16: With additional usage I've found that it's quite possible to pinche one's hand while using the FatMax. An adjustment in one's grip can avoid being pinched, but I felt I should mention the issue.

Not a tool that I'll use every day, but at least now I'll have a set of snips that are more readily available. Tool boxes are great, but only if you're near them when you need the tool.

Jim

These tin snips work perfectly for my needs. I purchased them to cut screws for my new cabinet door handles, and they cut them like butter. I didn't need to put a lot of pressure on them to cut through the screws. And the cuts were all straight! Over all, I am very happy with my purchase, and highly recommend these tin snips to my family and friends and anyone who may be on the fence to just buy them!

This tool seems to be well built, but I have not tried to cut any metal yet. The clasp that keeps the jaws closed was hard to set in place. I had to back off the set screw to allow the clasp to lock in place.

Amazing tool! Price is right and cuts like butter! I was looking for a tool to cut my bird’s leg ring and this did the trick. You have to be very careful and may need another person to hold the bird for you or you will need to cover the bird’s face and hold the body gently. I was able to slide this tool right in and snip it very easily. The tip of the tool was small enough that it fit right between the ring and the bird’s leg. The tool’s tip was smooth and not jagged at all. Very safe for the bird. You have to snip the ring on two ends so it falls off completely.
