PRODUCT INFO
The Milwaukee 48-22-4004 is a 10 in. Duckbill Tinner Snip — a professional sheet metal cutting tool with the distinctive wide, flat duckbill blade profile that provides superior straight-line control and reduced sheet deflection compared to standard aviation snip blade geometry in HVAC duct fabrication, sheet metal work, and light-gauge metal cutting applications. The duckbill blade shape is wider and flatter than standard aviation snip blades, keeping the sheet metal work surface flat and reducing the upward curl of the cut strip that standard snip geometries produce — the duckbill profile cuts with less material deflection during long straight cuts, producing cleaner, flatter cuts on large sheet metal panels and duct sections without the progressive curl that requires additional straightening work before seaming or assembly. Milwaukee equips this tinner snip with a 40 percent larger handle loop than competitive tinner snips, accommodating gloved hands comfortably during the sustained cutting operations typical of HVAC duct fabrication work where gloves are worn for extended periods and standard snip handle loops are too small for comfortable gloved operation.
- Duckbill blade profile for flat, deflection-free straight cuts on large sheet metal panels
- 40% larger handle loop than competitive tinner snips — comfortable with gloved hands
- Wide flat blade reduces strip curl during long straight cuts on duct and panel material
- 10 in. overall length for leverage and control in production HVAC and sheet metal cutting
- For HVAC duct fabrication, galvanized steel, aluminum flashing, and sheet metal straight cuts
