Fragola Hand Held Braided Hose Shear
There are a number of methods for cutting stainless braided hose, but the quickest and easiest is to utilize Fragola's Hand Held Hose Shear. With one stroke, hoses up to -12 AN can be cut quickly and cleanly. Some braid strands may need additional clipping with side-cut wire pliers.
Please Note: Not all types of hose, as some multi-layer hoses like power steering hose, may be too thick or tough to cut using these hand held hose shears.
