Snips & Scissors
Metalmaster® Compound Action Snips
The non-slip serrated jaws of Wiss Metalmaster snips are made of tough, wear-resistant molybdenum steel to provide the durability demanded by the compound lever action and to withstand the severe strain of cutting heavy stock or tight curves. The handles are formed of special high strength steel and have a margin of strength far above the amount of hand pressure that can be applied.

Metalmaster special series snips utilize a hardening process designed for unusual industrial requirements such as cutting today’s space age metals, like inconel, stainless steel and titanium.

90˚ Snips
The 90˚ angle of the blade allows for overhead cutting. The handle is produced from high tensile strength alloy steel which exceeds the amount of hand pressure that can be applied. A handy hang-up hole is built into the handle. The handles are spring-action for fast, effortless feed of metal. The non-slip, serrated jaw is produced from tough molybdenum steel and allows for compound lever action.
