YT-18960 YATO Mitre Shears 250 mm
The YATO YT-18960 mitre shears are a tool designed for precision cutting of trims, tubing and seals as well as plastic materials at angles of 0°, 22.5° and 45°. The aluminium body and stainless steel blade construction ensures durability under regular use in finishing and installation work.
Technical features of the YATO mitre shears
Stainless steel blade, 53-57 HRC
A hardness of 53-57 HRC indicates hardened steel that stays sharp for longer and needs sharpening less often. Stainless steel prevents corrosion on contact with moisture, which matters when cutting water-bearing materials or in workshop conditions.
Quick cutting-angle adjustment system
The mechanism allows quick switching between 0°, 22.5° and 45° in both directions without additional tools. A useful feature when cutting the corners of skirting boards, panel mouldings or finishing profiles, where angular precision affects the quality of the joint.
Lightweight aluminium body
Aluminium gives the construction rigidity while reducing the weight of the tool, which limits hand fatigue during repeated cuts. The material resists mechanical deformation, maintaining cutting precision over time.
Ergonomic PVC handle
The PVC coating increases friction between the hand and the handle, preventing the tool from slipping during work. The material cushions pressure, which matters during longer cutting sessions on harder materials.

Use and maintenance
Preparation before use
Before first use, check that the angle adjustment mechanism moves freely and inspect the sharpness of the blade. The angle setting is confirmed by locking the mechanism in the chosen position – any play here can affect cutting accuracy.
Cutting technique
Place the material in the jaw of the shears so that the cutting line aligns with the blade. When cutting at an angle, make sure the material sits flush against the angle guide. Pressure on the handle should be even to avoid deforming the material.
Blade maintenance
Regularly cleaning material residues off the blade prevents the build-up of dirt that can affect cut quality. The stainless steel blade needs no special protection against corrosion, but periodically oiling the moving mechanism prolongs smooth operation.
Storage
Store the shears in a dry place, protecting the blade from contact with hard objects that could cause chipping. Keeping the blades closed in the rest position protects the cutting edge from damage.
