The Stanley FatMax® Ergo Aviation Snips with black oxide coated blades, with one serrated edge for grip/anti-slip and one smooth edge for an overall cleaner cutting finish with blade markings for increased precision. They stay sharper longer to deliver up to 20x the cutting life of competitive models, which equates to 50,000 cycles per tool (when cutting 22 gauge stainless steel). Fitted with ergonomic handles that feature a reduced handle span by 20%, to prevent ‘over-stretch’, lowering the stress on the hand and arm muscles. This helps reduce the risk of strain and injury, ultimately less effort is required. Improved handle ergonomics provide better support to the finger and palm grip areas. Constructed from a chrome molybdenum alloy with a tapered front-end design that allows more manoeuvrability, improving accessibility. Improved pivot bolt design for increased durability, the new low profile design helps with restricted access whilst also improving strength. Fitted with a spring loaded latch, making it easier to open/close.
