Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Can these cut steel nails or thick coat hangers? A: No, flush cutters are designed strictly for soft materials like plastic, copper, and thin aluminum. Cutting hard steel will notch or ruin the blades.
Q: Are the handles spring-loaded? A: Compact flush cutters typically feature a small internal leaf spring or coil spring to automatically open the jaws between cuts.
