Irwin 2073112 Aviation Snip 10 Inches Right Straight Cut

Product Description

The IRWIN 2073112 is a 10-inch aviation snip designed for cutting sheet metal and similar materials in HVAC ductwork fabrication, roofing, and general sheet metal trade work. Built with compound leverage through multiple pivot pins, it delivers increased cutting force with less hand fatigue during extended use. The snip cuts right and straight, making it a dedicated tool for right-hand and straight-line cuts on sheet metal stock. Licensed HVAC technicians, sheet metal workers, and duct fabricators reach for this snip when fitting and trimming duct sections in the field or shop.

This snip is suited for residential and light commercial HVAC installations where duct cutting and sheet metal trimming are routine tasks. It performs well in tight spaces and at the bench during pre-fabrication. The right-and-straight cutting geometry makes it appropriate for running straight cuts across flat stock and navigating right-hand curves on duct fittings and transitions.

Key Features

• 10-inch overall length for controlled leverage and reach
• Compound leverage action via multiple pivot pins reduces cutting effort
• Cuts right and straight for versatile sheet metal work

Compatibility

Installation Notes

Aviation snips are hand tools used by HVAC technicians and sheet metal workers and require no power connection or lockout procedure before use. Always wear appropriate cut-resistant gloves when handling trimmed sheet metal edges. Use the correct snip orientation — right-cut for right-hand curves and straight cuts — to avoid blade binding and reduce hand strain. Inspect pivot pins and blades periodically for wear to maintain clean, burr-free cuts.
