Great price
Works better than expected for 18 gauge steel
I like the way you can adjust the swiveling head for better control.

Great tool
I cut several pieces of 18 gauge right off the bat when i received these. Had no problems what so ever. Straight, smooth cuts each time. Would buy again if these ever did break.

The only reason these people are'nt giving this product a 5******** is they are trying to cut metal,they were'nt suppose to be cutting!!!!!!! I own both, air and electric. And they are as good as button's on a shirt.

A spare set of cutter blades!
I have a couple of other Eastwood air tools and I expect to put these to work on my old 1950 Chevy truck I am restoring. They should come in handy during panel replacement and floor panel repairs as well. I hope they are ready because they have work to do!!

Air Shears
The shears work great and well worth the cost. The shears don't use excessive amounts of air.

Bad start, good finish
I had never used an Air Shear, so I bought one to cut some 18 gauge cold rolled steel. About one inch into the cut the blade snapped in two. I installed the second blade and it has worked perfectly. (Send me a new replacement blade)!

Questions & Answers
Will this work as a notcher making 1/4 cuts in 24G SS. I assume only the tip of the blades work. Does it curl the metal? or does it slice without width vs a saw? What else could be used to make such 1/4" notches in the edge of a sheet that are 1/4" wide
We have a video that you can watch this tool in action, go to the link and then click on the little picture under the main picture, then click the arrow and the video will play. This will give you a good look at the tool in action, and you will be able to see if this will work for your needs.

will this cutter cut ribbed metal roofing
I've used comparable shears to cut ribbed metal roofing on a couple of jobs and didn't have any problems. Just take your time and don't force tool.

Would this cut an 1/8" aluminum composite signboard? Its a 4x8' thin plastic panel faced on each side with thin white coated aluminum sheet...It is a light shearable product, just wondering if these jaws would accept something 1/8"?
Unfortunately due to the jaw size of this unit it would not be able to accept a material this thick.
