Part of Sterling’s Black Panther 700 Series, these 185mm snips feature precision-sharpened Japanese stainless steel blades with a serrated cutting edge for increased cutting capacity. The blades are hardened to 53 HRC for durability and consistent cutting performance.
The spring-loaded mechanism provides smooth, resistance-free action for fast and precise cutting, while the adjustable pivot, friction washer and security lock nut provide a robust cutting mechanism.
Ergonomically designed ambidextrous soft-grip handles feature anti-slip ridges for improved grip and control. The handles are manufactured from impact and solvent-resistant TPR material, making the snips suitable for professional workshop and industrial environments.
The Black Panther snips are designed as an effective knife replacement tool and can be used across a wide range of materials including cable, light gauge aluminium, sheet metal, carpet, Kevlar®, leather, rubber, wire netting and gardening materials.
A convenient integrated wire cutter can also be used on light gauge wire and cable up to Ø2.5mm.

Why Choose Sterling Black Panther Industrial Snips?
The Sterling 29-701 Black Panther Industrial Snips provide a highly versatile cutting solution for tradespeople who regularly work across different materials.
Unlike a standard pair of scissors, the precision-sharpened serrated stainless steel blades are designed to grip material during cutting while providing increased cutting capacity. Hardened to 53 HRC, the blades are engineered for professional industrial use.
The snips can handle materials ranging from aluminium, copper and galvanised sheet through to plastic, rubber, carpet, leather and Kevlar®, reducing the need to carry multiple cutting tools.
The integrated spring return, adjustable pivot and ergonomic anti-slip handles also make the Black Panther suitable for repetitive cutting applications where speed, comfort and control are important.
