KNIPEX tesoura para chapa 90 55 280 - 280 mm, corta aço até 1,2 mm, cobre/alumínio até 1,7 mm, plástico até 2,0 mm

For clean, distortion-free cuts in sheet metal and plastic without the need for power, the KNIPEX Sheet Metal Nibbler 90 55 280 stands apart from conventional snips and shears. Its nibbling action punches a continuous 5 mm wide slot, producing a chip that curls away neatly, so you can follow tight curves and straight lines with equal ease. The 280 mm length provides ample leverage, while the multi-component grips keep handling comfortable during longer jobs.

Highlights

• Nibbles steel sheet up to 1.2 mm, copper and aluminium up to 1.7 mm, and plastic up to 2.0 mm
• Punches a 2.7 mm hole with each stroke, leaving a smooth, burr-free edge
• Oil-hardened special tool steel cutting head for lasting sharpness
• Burnished surface resists corrosion and reduces friction
• Multi-component grips for a secure, comfortable hold
• Made in Germany to KNIPEX quality standards

In daily use

Whether you are trimming a copper flashing, cutting an aluminium panel, or shaping a plastic cover, this nibbler handles the task without distorting the surrounding material. The cutting head is designed for easy access in tight spots, and the long handles give you the mechanical advantage needed to work through thicker stock. Because it is manually operated, you never have to worry about batteries, cords, or air supply—just pick it up and start cutting.
