Malco N1R 13/16 in. Depth Hand Notcher

CLEAN 30° V-SHAPED NOTCHING: Specifically engineered to produce a precise 30-degree "V" cut in sheet metal with a 13/16-inch (20.6 mm) maximum throat depth. Essential for clean corner notches and creating take-off tabs in ductwork and metal fabrication. ANTI-SLIP HOOK JAW DESIGN: The specialized hook design of the cutting jaw allows for effortless notching of corners or tabs to the exact desired depth. This unique geometry facilitates steady cutting without the tool slipping off the workpiece. DROP-FORGED ALLOY STEEL STRENGTH: The upper cutting jaw is constructed from drop-forged, high-impact alloy steel for industrial durability. Hardened stamped steel components are finished with rust-resistant nickel plating and black oxide to ensure a long tool life. REDLINE ERGONOMIC HANDLES: Experience maximum leverage with Malco’s patented Redline handle contours. The over-molded, non-slip grips provide a natural fit and feel, optimizing the handle-opening range to reduce hand fatigue during repetitive jobsite use. ONE-HAND OPERATION LATCH: Features a unique, easy-to-operate latch for smooth one-handed opening and closing. The compound head-to-handle linkage provides powerful mechanical advantage while leaving your other hand free to steady the material.
