Kett Tool’s KL-200 Double-Cut Shears Cut and Contour Steel and More

Cincinnati-based Kett Tool Co.’s KL-200 Double-Cut Shears help manufacturers and contractors conserve materials and cut costs. The shears deliver precision cuts in C.R. mild steel, stainless steel, plastic and Formica without warping or bending the original material or the finished piece.

“The KL-200 allows for ease of operation without damaging the final product,” explains Kathy Conlon, president of Kett Tool. “Metal workers in all industries will save valuable time, material and money on the job with this product design from Kett Tool.”

The Double-Cut Shears’ dual blades transfer any distortion produced in cutting to a small 7/32-inch waste strip, leaving behind material edges that are not hardened or burred to allow maximum use of sheet material. The blades’ swiping action also seals edges of coated metals.

Kett Tool’s KL-200 shears use a 4-amp straight handle, single-speed electric motor to produce straight or contoured cuts in C.R. mild steel (up to 18 gauge), most grades of stainless steel to 20 gauge and 3/32-inch-thick plastics and Formica—at speeds up to 300 inches per minute. The lightweight, maneuverable shears easily follow a scribed line, capable of cutting a radius as small as 6 inches. All shear heads are precision made in the U.S., featuring A-2 tool steel blades for prolonged durability.

The KL-200 Double-Cut Shears are available through authorized dealers.
