Apex 27N Industrial Shears Nickel Plated 2.75 Inch

Product Description

The APEX 27N is a pair of industrial shears designed for cutting fabric and thread in demanding trade and shop environments. Built from high carbon steel, the 27N features a nickel plated blade measuring 2.75 inches in length and a sharp point style suited for precise, controlled cuts. The black handles are ambidextrous, accommodating both right- and left-handed users. Identification markings are hard stamped directly into the tool. At 0.3 pounds, the shears are lightweight enough for extended use without fatigue. These are a practical cutting tool for HVAC technicians, electricians, plumbers, and general tradespeople who work with insulation wrap, vapor barrier fabric, or electrical sleeving.

The APEX 27N suits residential and commercial trade applications where a reliable, compact hand shear is needed on the job. Common use cases include cutting pipe wrap tape, duct liner fabric, thread, and lightweight textile materials. The overall length of 7 inches keeps the tool manageable in confined spaces. The shears are sold individually and are appropriate for any trade professional who requires a dedicated cutting tool as part of their standard kit.

Key Features

• 2.75 inch nickel plated blade for corrosion resistance and smooth cutting action

Compatibility

Installation Notes

No power tools or electrical shutoff is required for shear use. Inspect the blade edge before use and keep fingers clear of the cutting path. Store shears with the blades closed to protect the edge and prevent accidental contact. Periodic light oiling of the pivot point will maintain smooth blade action and extend service life.
