Milwaukee 48-22-4552 Right Cut Offset Aviation Snips

Product Description

The Milwaukee Electric Tool Corp 48-22-4552 is a right-cutting offset aviation snip built for sheet metal work in HVAC, roofing, and light fabrication applications. The blades are forged steel with laser-hardened edges for long service life. Sharp, serrated blade geometry produces smooth, clean cuts with minimal distortion to the material. The 45-degree offset handle positions the user's hand above the work surface, providing clearance over the cut material and reducing hand fatigue during extended use. A metal bolt lock keeps the blades aligned and prevents loosening under repeated use.

This snip is designed for field and shop use by HVAC technicians, sheet metal workers, and general contractors who need reliable right-handed cuts in flat or shaped sheet metal. The offset configuration makes it well suited for cuts where a standard in-line handle would contact the workpiece. Color-coded handles allow quick identification when multiple snip types are on a job site. The metal lock secures the tool in the closed position for safe storage and belt clip carry, and it operates with one hand.
