Apex 1DSN Industrial Shears 2.75 Inch Nickel Plated

Product Description

The APEX 1DSN is a pair of industrial shears built for heavy-duty cutting tasks in trade and industrial environments. The blades measure 2.75 inches in length and carry a nickel-plated finish over steel construction. Handles share the same nickel-plated finish for a uniform, corrosion-resistant surface. Part identification is applied by laser etching, keeping markings durable over the life of the tool. Sharp-point blade geometry supports precision entry cuts as well as general-purpose shearing. At 0.45 pounds, the tool is light enough for extended use without fatigue.

The 1DSN is suited for cutting tasks across HVAC, electrical, plumbing, and general mechanical trades. The ambidextrous design accommodates both right- and left-handed users, making it a practical addition to any technician's toolkit. Typical applications include trimming insulation, cutting wire wrap, snipping zip ties, trimming gasket material, and other detail cutting work encountered during installation or service calls. The overall length of 8.125 inches provides adequate leverage for controlled cuts through light materials.

Installation Notes

No installation is required for hand tools of this type. Before use, inspect the blade edges for nicks or damage that could compromise cut quality or create a safety hazard. Keep blades clean and lightly oiled at the pivot point to maintain smooth action. Store with the blades closed when not in use to protect the sharp points and prevent accidental injury.
