About This

• APPLICATIONS: Specially designed to cut Kevlar, Dyneema, Spectra, Vectran, Dacron, Nomex, Technora, Zylon, Innegra, Carbon Fiber, Fiberglass, and other high-tensile strength materials for precise, clean and numerous cuts
• SUPERIOR QUALITY CONSTRUCTION: Blades are made from high carbon alloy steel from Japan and infused with Molybdenum and Vanadium to achieve a HRC 60-62 level of hardness. Cutting edge hardness HV1200. One blade is micro-serrated blade for maximum hold on the material to ensure a clean and precise cut. Extended tang for efficient force transfer
• PERFORMANCE: These shears have been tested for thousands of cuts on Kevlar 49 fabric and Vectran / Dyneema ropes on 1/8??(3 mm) and 5/8??(16mm). The quality of cut at end of life was still quite good
• PORTABILITY: The shears is medium sized (overall length 8 inch / 203 mm, blade length 2-75 inch / 70 mm) and light weight (0.38 lbs / 172.4 grams). The shears are well sized for storage and for carrying in tool boxes as technicians work in the field or move between job sites
• SAFETY AND COMFORT: Ergonomically designed handles made from TPR (Thermoplastic Rubber) for a non-slip and comfortable grip, reducing hand fatigue and strain during repetitive use. The handles are ambidextrous
• MARKET SEGMENTS: Aviation, Avionics, Automotive, Electrical, Fiber Optics, Marine, Alarm & Security, Sports, Ropes / Netting, Parachute Manufacturing, Medical Device Manufacturing, and Military. Ideal for short cuts in sail-making / repair and cutting lines during boat rigging. A popular pair in parachute industry for cutting / trimming Zylon lines
