Milwaukee 2470-21 M12 12-Volt Cordless PVC Shear
from Milwaukee
Price: $184.95

Customer Review:

This changes everything! I fab custom Life Support Systems for Aquariums and cut pipe from 1/2" to 2" all day long. It is accurate, eazy, quick and reasonably safe if you engage your brain. The old ratchet style cutters gave me a trigger finger and my hands ached all the time. This is perfect! What... more info

Milwaukee 6815 14 Gauge Shear

Price: $323.82

Customer Review:

Don't buy this item for metal roofing. Better job can be done with hand shears vs. Milwaukee 6815, whole lot cheaper as well.

DEWALT DW941K-2 14.4-Volt 18 Gauge Cordless Swivel Head Shear
from DEWALT
Price: $250.41

Customer Review:

The 14.4 volt Dewalt shears are a great product to own. I purcahsed them because all my other cordless Dewalt tools are 14.4 volt so the batteries are interchangable. The price was the best on the market. The best feature the tool offers is that the cutting head can swivel 360* to allow for the best... more info

I have two of these shears. They work 10 hours a day cutting 24 gauge steel pieces for caskets since 5 years ago. I only change brushes and minor parts.

Milwaukee 6852-20 18 Gauge Shear
from Milwaukee
Price: $139.99

Customer Review:

Another wonderful Milwaukee product! But it is not the best option for cutting non-flat metal roofing. Best to buy a metal cutting circular saw; Milwaukee makes both corded and non-corded models. :):)

12" Sheet Metal Shear Steel Aluminum Copper Hand Cutter
from TJL Industrial
Price: $114.99

Customer Review:

I purchased this shear for something not quite its intended use, viz., cutting FR4 (fiberglass) printed circuit boards. PCB-specific shears are far more expensive, and most likely not built quite as well as this---it's made of heavy steel and has a smooth cutting action with plenty of leverage.more info

DEWALT DC490KA 18-Volt Cordless 18 Gauge Swivel Head Shear Kit
from DEWALT
Price: $340.00

Customer Review:

Although compact and light-weight, it has the cutting power DeWalt claims. I was amazed at the ease in which it cut through aluminum.
It's best suited for flat material though. I tried using it on ribbed aluminum you would install on a pole barn with little success.
