Why Gutter Contractors Choose Midwest Upright Aviation Snips

Professional gutter installation often requires cutting in spaces where standard inline aviation snips cannot operate effectively - and the Midwest Snips Upright 90 Degree design solves this access problem. Standard aviation snips position the cutting blades inline with the handles, requiring significant clearance above and around the cutting area. This becomes problematic when cutting gutters near fascia boards, around downspout outlets, inside gutter corners, or in overhead positions. The upright 90-degree design rotates the cutting head perpendicular to the handles, allowing the blades to access tight spaces while hands remain in a comfortable, natural position. This is particularly valuable when notching gutter sections for inside and outside corners, cutting around downspout outlet locations, trimming gutter guards to fit, and modifying installed gutters where access is limited. The hot drop forged blade construction creates a denser, harder blade steel than stamped alternatives - this translates to longer edge life and cleaner cuts through abrasive galvanized coatings. The right-cut design curves material away to the right as you cut, providing clear sightlines to your cut line and preventing material curl from obscuring your work. The green handle color follows the industry standard for identifying right-cut snips, making tool selection quick and error-free on the job site. The ergonomic handle design increases wrist range of motion, reducing the strain that leads to fatigue and repetitive stress during high-volume cutting days.

Features that make these upright snips the contractor choice for confined space cutting:

Important: Understanding Right Cut vs. Left Cut Aviation Snips

The Midwest MWT-6900R is a right-cut aviation snip identified by the green handles. Right-cut snips curve material to the right as you cut, making them the standard choice for right-handed users and clockwise cutting patterns. For left-handed users or counter-clockwise cutting patterns, left-cut snips (red handles) are available. The upright 90-degree design is available in both right-cut and left-cut configurations. For straight cuts without material curving, straight-cut snips (yellow or blue handles) are preferred. Contact GutterAll for guidance on selecting the right snip configuration for your applications.

Also known as upright tin snips, vertical aviation snips, 90-degree snips, perpendicular snips, right-angle snips, or confined space snips - these upright snips provide the access that tight space cutting requires. The upright design positions blades perpendicular to handles for confined space access. Hot drop forged blade construction provides superior edge retention. The right-cut direction (green handles) curves material away for clear sightlines. 24-gauge cold rolled steel capacity handles standard gutter materials.

Who Uses Midwest Snips Upright 90 Right Cut Aviation Snips?

Common Applications:

Setup Guide - How to Use Midwest Snips Upright 90 Right Cut Aviation Snips:

1. Understand the Upright Advantage: The blades are positioned perpendicular (90 degrees) to the handles. This allows cutting in tight spaces where standard inline snips require too much clearance above the material.
2. Identify Right-Cut Direction: The green handles indicate right-cut. As you cut, material will curve to the right. This keeps your cut line visible and prevents material from obscuring your work.
3. Position for Confined Spaces: When cutting in corners, around outlets, or overhead, position the upright blades to access the material while your hands remain clear of obstructions.
4. Open Blades Fully: Spread the handles apart to open the cutting jaws completely. The ergonomic design provides increased wrist range of motion for comfortable operation.
5. Align with Cut Line: Position the blade edge on your marked cutting line. The right-cut design works best for clockwise cutting patterns around circular openings.
6. Apply Smooth Cutting Pressure: Squeeze the handles together with steady pressure. The hot drop forged blades require less force than stamped alternatives.
7. Maintain Natural Hand Position: The upright design allows you to keep a comfortable, natural grip even in awkward positions. Use this advantage during overhead and tight access work.
8. Store Properly: Wipe blades clean after use and store in a dry location. Light oil on the pivot point maintains smooth operation. Hang by the handle to protect blade edges.

Pro Tip: For clockwise cutting around downspout outlets, start at the top of the circle and cut clockwise - the right-cut design will curve material away from the opening, keeping your cut line visible throughout the operation.

Metal Cutting Safety Notice

ALWAYS FOLLOW PROPER HAND TOOL AND METAL CUTTING SAFETY PRACTICES. Wear appropriate safety glasses when cutting metal - cut edges and metal shavings can cause eye injury. Wear cut-resistant gloves when handling cut metal edges. Do not cut materials exceeding the rated 24-gauge capacity. The upright design provides better access but requires the same safety precautions as standard snips. When working overhead, ensure stable footing and be aware of falling metal scraps. Keep fingers clear of the cutting edge during operation. Follow all OSHA guidelines for hand tool safety.
