Milwaukee Power Scissors
Milwaukee Power Scissors: Built for Professional-Grade Cutting
When precision cutting is non-negotiable on the jobsite, Milwaukee Tool delivers with a lineup of power scissors engineered to the same demanding standards as their power tools. Whether you're working through heavy-gauge wire in a server room, tackling telecom terminations, or cutting through tough cordage, Milwaukee's scissors and power shears are designed to keep up with the pace of professional work.
Electrician Scissors Built Around Real-World Demands
Milwaukee's electrician scissors are purpose-built for electrical and telecommunication professionals. Nickel-coated steel blades stay sharp and maintain durability, while two stripping notches on the upper blade allow users to easily strip 19 AWG and 23 AWG wires. This dual-purpose design means fewer tools to carry and faster workflows on high-density wiring jobs.
The Extended Handle variant (48-22-4049) takes things further. It is specifically engineered for the low-voltage technician, featuring extended handle geometry that significantly increases cutting leverage through heavy cordage and wire jackets. Additional utility comes from a scraper and file built into the outside of the blades, along with a low-profile bolt pivot for smooth, reliable operation.
Bolt Lock Technology: The Difference You Can Feel
One of the most important — and often overlooked — engineering details in professional scissors is pivot stability. Milwaukee's Bolt Lock Technology addresses the primary failure point of jobsite scissors — pivot loosening — maintaining a consistent shear force over thousands of cycles. All-metal handle construction provides maximum durability and up to 10X longer life compared to plastic-handled competitors. For anyone who has had a pair of scissors go loose mid-job, this is a meaningful upgrade.
M18 Cordless Power Shears for Metal and Sheet Stock
Milwaukee's power scissors category extends beyond hand tools into their renowned M18 cordless platform. The M18 18 Gauge Double Cut Shears are optimized for making straight cuts with minimum distortion, featuring a 360° rotating head and a variable speed trigger for maximum control. Powered by the M18 battery system, these cordless tools eliminate the need for cords and offer freedom of movement, making them ideal for working in tight spaces or remote locations.
From standard straight scissors with iron carbide blades and ruler markings to offset models engineered for all-day comfort and increased leverage, every Milwaukee scissor tool is built for durability and control. That consistency across the lineup reflects Milwaukee's broader philosophy: every tool, regardless of category, should perform to a professional standard.
