Our November Construction Tool of the Month is the Aluminum Shear, one of the main tools used on the IVHFH construction site during soffit and fascia installation. IVHFH Construction Manager Chris Weckmann explains what an aluminum shear is and its use on the construction site. Watch the video below to hear what he has to say! What does Iowa Valley Habitat for Humanity use this tool for?
The Aluminum Shear is primarily used to cut aluminum for installing soffit and fascia on a home’s roof. This tool is handy for slicing through aluminum, thanks to its two wheels that cut effectively. It allows both straight and curved cuts and can even make cuts at 90 degrees. Additionally, it produces no metal dust and does not crinkle the metal. Compared to a saw, the aluminum shear operates quietly. Comments are closed.
