What Customers Are Saying
The shear attachment is generally effective at cutting through various metal materials, with users praising its performance and ease of use. The swiveling head allows for good maneuverability. However, some users reported issues when cutting corrugated or ridged metal surfaces, as the tool struggled to cut across the ridges. A few customers also found the attachment to be smaller than expected or had trouble fitting it properly on their drills. Overall, the attachment appears to be a useful tool for many metal cutting tasks, though it may not be suitable for all types of materials.

Installing Steel Roofing
Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this to help me cut steel roofing panels that I installed on my home. It works great on flat pieces, like the trim, but it does have trouble getting over the ribs in the panels. I would up using aviation snips for the ribs of the panels, but the shear attachment to cut panels length-wse and to cut my trim pieces.

saved my hands
Would Recommendgood shear for the money. I do advise using a drill motor instead of the impact wrench. I started using it with my DeWalt impact and the head got smoking hot!

Amazing
Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My coworker has the Malco shears and they work pretty good. Then I bought these shears one day and was amazed how much better they worked. Quick to attach onto drill/impact. Been dropped and abused cutting everything that fits into it. Hasn’t let me done yet. Been using it for over a year everyday use.
