Dewalt DW890 Swivel Head Shear 18 Gauge

Product Description

The DEWALT DW890 is a swivel head shear designed for cutting sheet metal up to 18 gauge. The swivel head design allows the cutting head to rotate, giving the operator full control over cut direction without repositioning the tool or the workpiece. This type of tool is commonly used in HVAC ductwork fabrication, roofing, and general sheet metal work. Electricians and HVAC technicians reach for shears like the DW890 when precision cuts on flat stock, standing seam, or duct panels are required. At 4.83 pounds, it is light enough for extended overhead or tight-space use on the job site.

The DW890 swivel head shear is well suited for residential and commercial HVAC duct fabrication, metal roofing installation, and general-purpose sheet metal work. It handles 18 gauge steel, making it appropriate for the material gauges most commonly encountered in ductwork and light structural sheet metal applications. The tool is sold as an individual unit and is intended for professional trade use.

Compatibility

Designed as a professional-grade swivel head shear suitable for 18 gauge sheet metal cutting applications common in HVAC, roofing, and general sheet metal trade work.

Installation Notes

The DW890 is operated by licensed HVAC technicians, sheet metal workers, and electricians working with light-gauge metal stock. Disconnect power from any nearby electrical circuits before cutting near energized components. Wear appropriate cut-resistant gloves and eye protection when operating sheet metal shears, as cut edges and metal chips are sharp. Follow all applicable safety guidelines in OSHA 1926 for construction site tool use.
