Klein Tools raises utility of snips
The company’s new Aviation Snips feature a built-in wire cutter.
New Aviation Snips with Wire Cutter from Klein Tools are designed to save time and extend the life of the tool. The innovation here is the built-in wire cutter, allowing for the cutting of wires without damaging the snip blades.
The product is available in three unique styles – left-, right- and straight-cutting – Klein’s new Aviation Snips integrate a wire cutter on the outside of the blade to optimize versatility.
“When Klein’s team receives valuable feedback from our customers, we look for ways that we can improve our products to address their needs and develop new solutions,” says Sabrina Kalsi, product manager at Klein Tools. “After realizing that HVAC professionals may sometimes damage snip blades when cutting wires, we thought about how we could extend the tool’s life. By integrating a wire cutter on the outside of the blade, Klein’s new Aviation Snips prevent damage from normal, everyday usage and allow professionals to cut sheet metal as well as duct and suspension wires with the convenience of just one tool.”
Other features include serrated, forged steel blades provide superior strength and durability, and spring-loaded lock allows easy, one-handed self-opening action.
