Customer Reviews for VEVOR Hand Plate Shear 5", Manual Metal Cutter Cutting Thickness1/4 Inch Max, Metal Steel Frame Snip Machine Benchtop 7/16 Inch Rod, for Shear Carbon Steel Plates and Bars

Got this today and put it right to work cutting lots or 1/8" hot rolled steel plate. Works just as I hoped. I was nervous after seeing a YouTube video of a guy complaining about not being able to cut 1/8" steel. And while that night be true for stainless or hardened steel, the A36 steel im working with was no problem.

Well made cutter. As with all equipment, you will have to make adjustments to meet your needs. Once you have it dialed in, the shear works very well. Ideal for small fab shops. I would definitely purchase again

This is a game changer for me. I can now get straight cuts in my panels and not my hands. Cutting with a grinder, or saw, left jagged edges that had to be ground smooth. This shear makes nice smooth cuts.

I was really surprised at how well this tool is made. Very solid and carries some weight. I use it to shear thin aluminum sheets and it does so with ease. Makes my job a lot easier. I wish I would have found this tool sooner.

I have used this mostly for thin stock to date and with limited use it seems to work well. Blades seem sharp and adjusted correctly out of the box. Set up took minimal time. Only draw back is the stop used to provide counter precure to the work. It is well forward and is a single spot which works ok for full sized sheets but has no function with thin strips or bar material. A full length gate style stop would have been much more helpful.

No complaints here. Minimal installation required. Cuts metal like butter, at least thin sheet metal that I needed a way to cut straight with. Highly recommended.

After years of wanting one of these shears I finally bought one and I’m glade I did. This makes quick and easy work of cutting all kinds of materials. This definitely was a great addition to my workshop!

Great shear mounted it the day it arrived and used it to cut aluminum panels for the trunk of my factory five 33 hot rod saved my hands from using the snips. I feel it paid for it self already

I like tools and this did the trick, wated to long be for getting one
