The Crescent M3R 9-3/4″ Compound Action Straight, Left, and Right Cut Snips deliver high-performance cutting, reduced user effort, and exceptional durability for professional sheet metal and fabrication applications. Designed with advanced compound-action technology, these aviation snips provide precise cutting performance for straight cuts and slight left or right curves.
Manufactured in the USA, the M3R features precision-cast molybdenum blades with CNC-ground serrations that provide cleaner cuts and superior material control. The advanced blade geometry and compound-action design require 20% less cutting force, reducing fatigue during repetitive cutting tasks.
Built for long-term durability, the snips are tested for up to 500,000 cuts and engineered to deliver up to 10 times longer cutting life than traditional aviation snips. The ultra-durable free-float pivot bolt design helps extend tool life while maintaining smooth cutting performance.
Additional user-focused features include a spring-loaded return for effortless operation, an ergonomic single-handed latch system suitable for left- or right-handed users, and extended non-slip handle grips for improved comfort and control.
Ideal for HVAC, roofing, metal fabrication, and construction professionals, these snips cut up to 18-gauge low carbon rolled steel with precision and reliability.
