Electric Metal Shear, 14 Gauge 5.0 Amp Variable Speed Swivel Head Heavy Duty Sheet Metal Cutter

This thing is a game changer. I built a catio and was just going to cut it by hand, but saw that this didn't cost a whole lot, so I tried it. WORKS GREAT. You have to get used to the positioning of the wire into the "mouth" of it a little bit, and it's kind of heavy, but I will never use a wire cutter for a bigger project again. This thing can cut wire so fast! It tells you how thick of a gage it can cut in the description, I think. Very happy with it. It also seems durable and I like that it is a plug in.

It's decent enough. It's a little finicky to work. The trigger doesn't always turn it on so you need to depress then press trigger a few times to get it to work. Once powered, sometimes it takes off and works great and sometimes it doesn't advance unless you rock it back and push it forward with a good amount of force (all cuts I made were the same gauge steel, maybe 18 gauge). If you get one you will know what I mean by "rock it back and push forward with a good amount of force". There is a slight amount of curling along the cut but nothing for me to complain about. I don't think I need this past my current project so it fits my needs. So far I've made about 120 feet of cut lines and it still works like it did when I made my first cut. Sure beats using an angle grinder to make cuts.

This is a plug-in Metal sheet. I have aviation snips, but I needed to cut a larger amount in a quicker time. This device does the job it makes a shallow cut and it rolls the metal up out of your way as it goes. Very efficient, and the price was great. Actual cutting head is adjustable so you can turn it and lock it down and hold the motor device at different angles it easier to use.

Affordable option if you need to cut metal with a little precision than shears. It cut through 18 ga aluminum diamond plate quite easily. The tool feels substantial and well made. Handled my needs without breaking the bank.

My wife found this Wild Edge metal shear on my Amazon wish list and surprised me with it. I was actually hesitant to place the order myself fearing this unfamiliar product might have exaggerated claims of quality and power. Not the case. I was very impressed with the build and performance of these shears. I cut some sheet metal from an old shelf a few weeks ago using my angle grinder. It took almost ten minutes of sparks flying all over the garage to end up with a jagged-edge sheet of 20 gauge metal about 12 by 24 inches. This Wild Edge Shear did the same job in thirty seconds! A very clean, easy cut with nice edges. I'm learning the trick to using this machine fluidly is the angle of attack on the cut. When that angle is just right, this shear cuts through metal like warm butter. I wish I had someone I trusted to tell me that this product is well built and will do what it's advertised to do. Allow me to be that person for you. I firmly believe you will be happy with this product purchase.

Terrible in Field. The blade is very difficult to bite the metal. Angle of shear must be just perfect, no tolerance. Probably OK on flat workbench cutting 18 gua new sheet metal. Would noy buy again and do not recommend for anyone. Pick another product is my suggestion. Company did refund my purchase. Great customer service.

Description said it would cut 15 gauge stainless. I was cutting 16 gauge sheet metal, which is thinner for anyone that doesn't know about metal thickness. About 2 feet into the first cut, the cutting piece broke in half. Had to finish the project with a sawzall and metal blade. This would probably be good for 18 gauge materials, but not 16 gauge.

The cutting jaws space is about 1/8 of an inch making it a total pain to get the machine to bite into the metal to initiate the cut. Once it catches it cuts great leaving behind a metal pigtail strip. They should of made the space between the jaws sissoring action bigger its super tiny ridiculous. Might be easier to work with on metal that is stand alone but if you needed it to cut metal that is installed and in place its a difficult maneuver. It was cheap and certainly beats a hacksaw so eh I guess you take the good with the bad.

Produto de boa qualidade, li algumas críticas nas avaliações, mas após um mês de uso, não tenho o que reclamar. Só em chapa de 1,2 mm e corta muito bem.

Nous avons reçu l'envoie 10 jours plus tard que mentionné à l'achat. La boite est arrivée endommagée et le protège couteau en plastique est cassé en trois morceaux. Par contre l'outil n'est pas endommagé. Qualité prix parfait.

Great tool for the price

Produto 110v o que não é informado na compra nem opção de voltagem. Pino de tomada fora do padrão Brasileiro o que obriga a usar adaptador ou trocar tomada mas aí perde garantia e para finalizar não corta direito nem chapa fina, trava o que faz com que os cortes fiquem irregulares. Não é boa compra, não recomendo.

Tool was slow to arrive. Took several weeks. It feels solid/heavy. It cuts 29 gauge metal roofing easily along straight flat panel parts. It REALLY struggles to cut across panel ribs without either crushing the rib, or scraping off paint. Rotating the head is a bit of a chore...you need to loosen 3 Allen screws to do so, it’s not something you can easily do part way through a cut! Also, the package was missing the replacement blades when it arrived. Final thought: this will save my forearms when I have to rip a 16’ roofing panel, but won’t really help with cross cuts. For a $100 bucks...maybe worth it?
