For the money, it works pretty damn good. Cuts clean and makes nice turns. Does a great job, a bonus for the money. Best of all, it didn't nibble at my budget. The Ingersoll-Rand EC300 is very well made and powerful.

It's true that the Astro Pneumatic Tool Company 727 Nibbler B01JBO3G2O was the Air Shears & Nibblers that we rated most highly. Even so, there were a few other very premium Air Shears & Nibblers worth showcasing here that just barely missed first place.

The next in our tool break down is manufactured by Ingersoll-Rand which is a very credible tool brand. Ingersoll-Rand's Nibblers are also top quality. I was excited to try out the model EC300 and I was not disappointed!

This Nibbler is just $99.44. That is a fantastic deal for a top quality Shears & Nibbler like the EC300 by Ingersoll-Rand. The Ingersoll-Rand EC300 is truly a sound alternative. Of you are uncertain about our top choice, I'd advise to opt for this Shears & Nibbler.

Apart from the option we reviewed above, I would definitely evaluate the 30067A by Ridgerock Tools Inc. and the AN-16 by Canadian Tool and Supply. Both tool manufacturers are famous for their premium Shears & Nibblers. Both of these two options are highly rated also. Customers awarded the Ridgerock Tools Inc. an average rating of 4.3/5 stars. You can liken that to the AN-16 that holds an average score of 3.9/5 stars.

For example Ideal for cutting ferrous and non ferrous sheet metals, rubber and plastics without deformation of edges and able to cut curves of a minimum of 1/2" radius.
