Ingco Left-Cut Aviation Tin Snip, 250mm, HTSN0110L
TSh 25,000
Our review
This is a left-cutting aviation snip from Ingco, 250mm long, sold under model HTSN0110L. A left snip is the one you reach for when the waste curl needs to peel away to the left of the cut, which makes it the natural partner to a right snip when you are working along a straight line or trimming a curve. The stated capacity is carbon steel up to 1.2mm and stainless steel up to 0.7mm, so it sits in the light-gauge sheet metal bracket rather than heavy plate work. Before buying, confirm you actually need a left-cut tool, because buying two of the same hand is a common and annoying mistake. Compare it with straight-pattern snips if you mostly cut gentle curves, and with a right snip if your offcut side is the opposite one. It is available on Sokonia.
