This tool did not live up to expectations bc the teeth wouldn’t open up wide enough to cut across ribbed metal roofing. Returned it and purchased a Ryobi one that had wider sheers

Nibbler wouldn't cut through 26 gauge corrugated roofing no matter how I angled it or adjusted the blades. I returned it.

As always, Milwaukee quality is the best. I’ve only used it on corrugated steel so far, and that’s never fun. But the rotating head helped and the shears cut clean.

Great power shear that cut through my metal roofing with ease. The only thing I would recommend is getting the 14 gauge model if you can afford it, because it will allow you to cut more variety of metals.

This has been perfect for cutting my metal roofing material down to size. It is heavy duty and seems like it will last.

This shear cuts steel roofing panels like butter with a hot knife. Very easy to control and the price is less than an emergency room visit after using hand shears. Worth the price even if used for one project. Wish I had purchased it years ago!

      Works well, very smooth operation.
      It makes short work of corrugated steel siding without crimping or binding.

      In one word- Power.
      This shear is a beast. It cuts steel like a hot knife through butter. Don't settle for less.
