Q:are these good snips for cutting Gutterguard by Gutterglove?
by|Jan 11, 2023
1 Answer
Answer This Question

A:  It should be adequate for the occasional cutting (4 or less). However, since Gutterguard is stainless, it would be advisable to utilize a heavier/larger pair of metal shears or a cut-off saw for four or more cuttings.

          cutting blade snapped after the second cut
          I have an old pair of WISS snips that I’ve had for years and they worked great, they were getting a little doll so I decided to buy a new pair unfortunately the new ones are garbage. I was cutting some 20 gauge galvanized sheet metal and after making two cuts the cutting blade snapped broke right off.

            Unfortunately, it did not do the job I bought it to do. But, it was useful on another project and easy to use. Good for rewiring, but not for thicker wire that I wanted to cut.

            I purchased this product to cut a kitchen backsplash I purchased that was made of super thin stone. The snips worked great. They cut the stone easily, with precision and with a clean cut on the edges of the stone. Very impressed!
