Shop desertcart Basics 3-Piece Aviation Snip Set - Left, Right and Straight Cut. Review: Durable Tin Snips - This 3-piece tin snip set from desertcart Basics is a versatile and reliable addition to any toolkit, perfect for cutting sheet metal, stainless steel, and even thick plastic that standard scissors wouldn't manage. The straight-cut snips work effectively with materials up to 18-gauge mild steel (1.2 mm thick) and handle thinner stainless steel fairly well, provided it’s not overly thick. The left- and right-cut snips are better suited for thinner materials like 20-22 gauge mild steel (0.8 to 0.6 mm thick). While they might not be the best choice for any heavy-duty metalwork, they’re ideal for light projects requiring precision and control. Beyond metal, I’ve found these snips surprisingly great for cutting through thicker plastics. The serrated blades maintain a firm grip on materials, ensuring clean cuts, and the sharpness is decent enough for consistent performance. The rubberized handles are comfortable to grip and make cutting easier on the hands and the latch lock is a thoughtful addition for safe storage. Overall, these snips deliver great value for a wide range of cutting needs. Whether you’re working with metals or thick plastics, this set offers durability and functionality at a reasonable price. Review: Not bad for the price. - Out of the box these performed much better than I thought that they would. Bear in mind that these are not Bessey, Facom or Milwaukee either as I bought when a full time engineer. These will, as they were, today, only used on thin mild steel, copper or aluminium. For steel the most I would go to is 1.2mm (18swg) avoiding stainless completely. Having said that, they feel pretty sturdy and the action is nice and positive with an action not dissimilar to far more expensive tools. They fit nicely to the hand and the left hand, right hand and straight cut versions give a neat cut which allows the easy following of curved lines too. These are a budget set, but they feel extremely well made with a good positive grip that gives the user the feel of a far more expensive tool. If you don’t overtax them, they’ll work fine for a hobbyist, just treat them with respect and I suspect they’ll give good service. ## Features - 3-piece set of aviation tin snips for easy cutting from any angle (left, right, straight) - Cuts through thin sheets of aluminum tin and metal, including up to 18-gauge steel and up to 22-gauge stainless steel - High-leverage design with serrated-edge blades for efficient cutting; made of premium chrome vanadium steel processed with a high-frequency heat treatment - 2-colored handle with a rubberized grip helps ensure a secure hold and precise cuts; latch locks tool shut when not in use to help protect the blade; one-handed auto release ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B07RWV2N8C | | Best Sellers Rank | 3,528 in DIY & Tools ( See Top 100 in DIY & Tools ) 2 in Tin Snips | | Blade Material | Alloy Steel | | Blade material | Alloy Steel | | Brand | Amazon Basics | | Colour | Multicolour | | Country of Origin | China | | Customer Reviews | 4.5 out of 5 stars 3,548 Reviews | | Handle Material | Plastic and Rubber | | Is the Product Left or Right Handed? | Ambidextrous | | Item Dimensions L x W | 26L x 8.4W centimetres | | Item Weight | 2.4 Pounds | | Manufacturer | Amazon | | Material | Steel , Chrome, Vanadium | | Model Number | AMAS01 | | Number of Items | 3 | | Part Number | AMAS01 | | Product Style | Modern | | Product dimensions | 26L x 8.4W centimetres | | Style | Modern | | Unit Count | 3.0 count | ## Product Details - **Blade material:** Alloy Steel - **Brand:** Amazon Basics - **Colour:** Multicolour - **Material:** Steel, Chrome, Vanadium - **Product dimensions:** 26L x 8.4W centimetres ## Images ![Amazon Basics 3-Piece Aviation Snip Set - Left, Right and Straight Cut - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71+Y5JC+dLL.jpg) ![Amazon Basics 3-Piece Aviation Snip Set - Left, Right and Straight Cut - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71IbHUUq6dL.jpg) ![Amazon Basics 3-Piece Aviation Snip Set - Left, Right and Straight Cut - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71xM-T4GNSL.jpg) ![Amazon Basics 3-Piece Aviation Snip Set - Left, Right and Straight Cut - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61Ckl6ILS8L.jpg) ![Amazon Basics 3-Piece Aviation Snip Set - Left, Right and Straight Cut - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51kY+Vd8UGL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Size** options. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Durable Tin Snips *by I***N on 18 December 2024* This 3-piece tin snip set from Amazon Basics is a versatile and reliable addition to any toolkit, perfect for cutting sheet metal, stainless steel, and even thick plastic that standard scissors wouldn't manage.

A bargain buy. Solidly built, easy to grip, and sharp enough to cut cleanly. Quite a strong spring action so tiring to use for an extended period. A little on the heavy side. ## Frequently Bought Together - Amazon Basics 3-Piece Aviation Snip Set - Left, Right and Straight Cut - HURRICANE Sheet Metal Hand Seamer, 6 Inch Straight Jaw Sheet Bender Tools for Flattening Metal, Bending Pliers with Double Dipped Cushion Handle - SLNIHAMS 5-Blade Hand Crimper Sheet Metal Tools, Hvac Tool for 24-28 Gauge Duct Work Downspout and Stove Pipe, 10-1/2" Sheet Metal Crimper Gutter End Cap Duct Crimping Tool --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.sc/products/187511102-amazon-basics-3-piece-aviation-snip-set-left-right-straight](https://www.desertcart.sc/products/187511102-amazon-basics-3-piece-aviation-snip-set-left-right-straight) --- *Product available on Desertcart Seychelles* *Store origin: SC* *Last updated: 2026-10-13*
