Wiss M1R Aviation Snips Left Hand Cut 9.75 in

Product Description

The WISS M1R is a left-hand aviation snip designed for cutting sheet metal and similar materials in HVAC, roofing, and general fabrication work. Built with molybdenum steel blades and a serrated jaw edge, it delivers consistent cuts through steel up to 18 AWG. The compound leverage mechanism reduces hand fatigue during extended use, making it well suited for professionals who cut duct, flashing, or sheet stock throughout the workday. Overall length is 9.75 inches, with a cutting length of 1.375 inches. The spring-action return and safety latch keep operation fast and controlled between cuts.

The M1R is intended for general-purpose left-hand cutting applications. It fits standard trade workflows in HVAC duct fabrication, sheet metal work, roofing, and mechanical contracting. The red handle color follows the industry convention for left-hand aviation snips, allowing quick identification in a shared tool environment. It is a single-unit tool appropriate for both shop use and field service work.
