Midwest Tool Special Hardness - Forged Aviation Snips

The Special Hardness Aviation Snips have serrated blades that are heat-treated to Rc60 for cutting Stainless steel, Inconel, Titanium, and other hardened metals with ease. Offset Aviation snips flow material away from blades and positions the user's hand above the material for best maneuverability when making long cuts or tight curves. These snips feature GLIDETECH® FORGED BLADES: unequaled strength, longest lasting edge life, and the most precise cutting action. Blades are hot drop forged of molybdenum alloy steel and Austemper heat-treated to best accept and hold their precision-ground cutting edge. Blades cut completely, from the pinch of the blades through their points, and pivot on a Grade 8 bolt that is threaded and affixed into the bottom blade, keeping blades in precision adjustment, and if ever necessary, allowing them to be readjusted, extending peak performance.
