Plaatschaar staal NWS 062L-12-250

The Snips Steel NWS 062L-12-250 are hand snips designed for precision cutting of stainless steel sheet up to 0.8 mm thick. With a maximum cutting length of 4.2 cm and an overall length of 250 mm, these snips combine a compact cutting capacity with a lightweight construction of approximately 470 g, making them suitable for tasks that require accuracy and maneuverability. The tool is made from durable steel to deliver consistent performance in workshops, maintenance, and metalworking applications.

Advantages

These NWS snips offer precise cutting performance for thin stainless steel sheets while remaining lightweight for extended use. The compact maximum cutting length allows controlled, short cuts and detail work. Constructed from durable steel, the tool provides stable blade geometry and long-term dimensional stability under normal use. The 250 mm overall length gives a balance between reach and control for hand-held cutting operations.

Suitable for

• Cutting stainless steel sheet metal up to 0.8 mm thick
• Detail trimming and short straight cuts in metalworking
• Maintenance and repair tasks requiring precise metal cutting
• Workshop and light fabrication jobs

Key specifications

• Maximum material thickness: stainless steel up to 0.8 mm
• Maximum cutting length: 4.2 cm
• Overall tool length: 250 mm
• Weight: approximately 470 g
• Material: steel construction for blades and body

How to use

Position the snips so the cutting edges contact the stainless steel sheet at the desired cut line. Apply steady hand pressure and close the handles smoothly to achieve a controlled short cut, using successive small cuts for longer lines. Keep the sheet supported near the cutting area to reduce deformation and ensure a straight edge. After use, wipe the cutting surfaces clean and store the snips in a dry location to prevent corrosion.

Recommendations

Use these snips for short, precise cuts rather than long continuous shearing; for longer straight cuts, progress by making a series of overlapping short cuts. Do not use the tool on materials thicker than recommended or on hardened or spring steel to avoid damage to the cutting edges. Regularly inspect and maintain the cutting edges and pivot to keep cutting performance consistent.
