Aviation Snip Set, Left Right Straight

Westward's 4PM06 Aviation Snip Set contains three steel snips for left, right and straight cuts. The 9 3/4 in tools use compound leverage and spring action to reduce hand effort. Color-coded vinyl cushion grips help identify each snip quickly. A safety latch keeps blades closed when the set is stored.

Check Material Thickness And Grip Comfort

The snips are rated for 18 gauge mild steel, so verify that your sheet metal does not exceed this thickness. Ensure the vinyl cushion grip design fits your hand size for comfortable extended use. Confirm that the 1 3/8 in to 1 1/2 in cutting length suits the shapes you need to trim.

Sustained Cutting With Compound Leverage

Compound leverage and spring action maintain consistent cutting force across repeated snips, reducing fatigue during long sessions. The safety latch prevents accidental blade opening between cuts. Color-coded handles let you switch between left, right and straight snips without pausing to inspect each tool.

Questions about this item

Does the Westward 4PM06 set ship with all three snips or must the left, right and straight cutters be ordered separately?

The set includes three snips — left, right and straight — in one package, so nothing extra is needed to start cutting.

Which of the three cutters in the 4PM06 set should I choose for a straight cut in 18-gauge mild steel?

Use the straight-pattern snip; it is designed for straight cuts in material up to 18-gauge mild steel.

What does the 1 3/8 to 1 1/2 inch cutting length mean when I am trimming sheet metal on the bench?

Each snip can make a single cut up to 1 1/2 inches long, letting you trim panels in fewer strokes.
