9-3/4" Compound Action Straight, Left, and Right Cut Snips

M3R
Crescent Wiss® has taken the Aviation Snip to the next level with the advanced Aviation Snips. The precision-cast molybdenum blades have CNC-ground serrations which allow for more uniform serrations that provide a cleaner cut every time. They feature extended pivot bolt life due to the superior free-float design. The spring-action design allows for fast, effortless feed. The all-new latch design provides ergonomic single-handed operation for left or right handed users. New extended non-slip handle grips give users better control while cutting. The new generation of Crescent Wiss Snips will cut over 8 miles of steel and feature up to 10 times longer cut life than traditional Aviation Snips. They are available in left/straight cut, right/straight cut, and straight cut.

  • Frequently Asked Questions
    What types of materials can you cut with the M3R?
    Cuts straight and slight curves with yellow handles for quick identification. This tool can cut low carbon rolled steel with a cutting capacity of 18 gauge low carbon steel. With a single-handed latch operation this snip is designed to be used by both left and right handed individuals.
    What does straight, left, and right cut mean?
    These snips are designed for straight cuts and slight left- or right-curving cuts, providing greater versatility than single-direction aviation snips.
    What are the benefits of compound-action aviation snips?
    The compound-action design increases cutting power and requires less cutting force, helping reduce user fatigue during repetitive cutting tasks.
    What trades commonly use aviation snips?
    Aviation snips are commonly used by HVAC technicians, sheet metal workers, roofers, siding installers, metal fabricators, and contractors.
    What is the difference between aviation snips and tin snips?
    Aviation snips use a compound-action mechanism that increases cutting power and reduces effort, making them a popular choice for sheet metal fabrication and HVAC work.
