NIQUA Jewellers Snips with Spring and Clamp 170mm

Make distortion-free cuts in precious metal sheet, trim bezel strips cleanly, and slice non-ferrous foils with effortless, spring-assisted speed. Manufactured by NIQUA to German toolmaking standards, the NIQUA® Jeweller's Snips with Spring and Clamp (170 mm / Ref: 04-081-170) are professional metal-cutting shears forged from hardened, high-grade cutlery steel.

Engineered specifically for jewelry bench work, these shears feature precision-ground straight cutting blades designed to slice clean edges through gold, sterling silver, copper, and brass sheet up to 0.4 mm in thickness without crimping or curling the cut edges. An integrated internal leaf return spring reopens the blades smoothly after each cut to eliminate hand fatigue during high-repetition shearing tasks. For safe bench storage and blade edge protection, the snips include a built-in handle clamp (safety catch) that locks the shears securely closed when not in use. Finished with durable black-coated handles and machine-matched pivot alignment, this 170 mm tool delivers accurate, fatigue-free sheet cutting for professional goldsmiths.
