Electric Metal Shear, 14 Gauge 5.0 Amp Variable Speed Swivel Head Heavy Duty Sheet Metal Cutter

This thing is a game changer. I built a catio and was just going to cut it by hand, but saw that this didn't cost a whole lot, so I tried it. WORKS GREAT. You have to get used to the positioning of the wire into the "mouth" of it a little bit, and it's kind of heavy, but I will never use a wire cutter for a bigger project again. This thing can cut wire so fast! It tells you how thick of a gage it can cut in the description, I think. Very happy with it. It also seems durable and I like that it is a plug in.

This is a plug-in Metal sheet. I have aviation snips, but I needed to cut a larger amount in a quicker time. This device does the job it makes a shallow cut and it rolls the metal up out of your way as it goes. Very efficient, and the price was great. Actual cutting head is adjustable so you can turn it and lock it down and hold the motor device at different angles it easier to use.

It's decent enough. It's a little finicky to work. The trigger doesn't always turn it on so you need to depress then press trigger a few times to get it to work. Once powered, sometimes it takes off and works great and sometimes it doesn't advance unless you rock it back and push it forward with a good amount of force (all cuts I made were the same gauge steel, maybe 18 gauge). If you get one you will know what I mean by "rock it back and push forward with a good amount of force". There is a slight amount of curling along the cut but nothing for me to complain about. I don't think I need this past my current project so it fits my needs. So far I've made about 120 feet of cut lines and it still works like it did when I made my first cut. Sure beats using an angle grinder to make cuts.

I purchased these metal shears for a project I have going on. I removed an old beat up shelving unit and wanted to salvage the steal. I thought that these shears were worth a shot and the price couldn’t be beat. I didn’t have high expectations based on price but these shears work wonderfully. They cut through the steal very easy and right on track. I would recommend these to any DIYer looking for a cheap alternative to the abrasive cutting wheels. I cut a shelf using the angle grinder and it took me about 15 minutes to complete. With the shears, less than 5 minutes. The only complaint is that the shears are a bit heavy and cumbersome to start some cuts but I’m sure that will get easier with more use.

Needed to cut sheets of roof tin. The Shear did a good job of cutting, however at places that were not level it was a bit harder to keep a straight line.

First, I'm an older citizen and female and I was hesitant to buy this but due to fire I have to cut warped sheetmetal roofing in pieces in order to move them. This shears will go in whatever direction you put it and smoothly. The trigger pulls softly and I never lock it in place because it's easy to use without using the locking mechanism. I would buy again.

WORKED FOR ONE MINUTE AND STOP...WASTE OF MY TIME AND MONEY

I read the reviews and began to have second thoughts so I requested a cancellation of my order but I waited too long, I still had the intention of returning it. So when the shears arrived I wanted to see how well it worked, as soon as I plugged it in it started running on low speed which verifies the sticking switch review. I unplugged it to see if I could fix it. It was the trigger switch not seated properly in the handle that caused the misaligned trigger to jam against the motor housing. After I set in place properly it worked fine. The next step was to see how well the shears worked and beyond my expectations it cut 20, 18, 16, and 14 gauge steel and 18 gauge stainless steel. So I'm guessing that some of the bad reviews were were by those that used the tool improperly i.e., trying to cut a tight radius or trying to cut non flat surfaces. I'll keep it and update accordingly.

Produto de boa qualidade, li algumas críticas nas avaliações, mas após um mês de uso, não tenho o que reclamar. Só em chapa de 1,2 mm e corta muito bem.

Worked as expected very happy A++

Produto 110v o que não é informado na compra nem opção de voltagem. Pino de tomada fora do padrão Brasileiro o que obriga a usar adaptador ou trocar tomada mas aí perde garantia e para finalizar não corta direito nem chapa fina, trava o que faz com que os cortes fiquem irregulares. Não é boa compra, não recomendo.

Nous avons reçu l'envoie 10 jours plus tard que mentionné à l'achat. La boite est arrivée endommagée et le protège couteau en plastique est cassé en trois morceaux. Par contre l'outil n'est pas endommagé. Qualité prix parfait.

Works great
