What to Look For

  • Shear or nibbler. Shears make fast straight and gentle curved cuts. Nibblers cut tight curves and leave a flat sheet.
  • Gauge rating. Match the tool's listed gauge to the thickest sheet you cut.
  • Fastening. Rivet tools join sheet metal. The lockbolt tool sets structural lockbolts.
  • Consumables. Keep spare blades, punches, and dies on hand for your shear or nibbler.

Milwaukee Metalworking Tools FAQ

Single cut or double cut shear?

A single cut shear leaves one edge free and turns easily for curves. A double cut shear removes a thin strip, so the sheet does not bind or distort, which helps on long straight cuts in ductwork and panels.

What warranty covers Milwaukee cordless metalworking tools?

Most Milwaukee electric power tools, including M18 and M12 tools, carry a 5-year limited warranty, and some SKUs carry shorter terms. Registration is not required. Hand tinners fall under Milwaukee's limited lifetime warranty on hand tools.
