The Fein ABSS 18 1.6 E AS N00 71300561000 is a professional 18V cordless slitting shear designed for fast, clean and distortion-free cutting of sheet metal. Its compact and maneuverable design makes it particularly suitable for curve cuts, profile sections, coil sections, notches and interior cut-outs.

The powerful MultiMaster motor provides excellent performance and stability, while the variable stroke rate of 2,200–3,500 SPM enables the cutting speed to be adjusted according to the material and application. The tool can cut steel up to 1.6mm thick at 400 N/mm² and non-ferrous metals up to 2mm thick, making it suitable for a wide range of sheet-metal fabrication and installation tasks.

The open-fronted cutting head provides excellent visibility of the cutting line, helping the operator achieve accurate cuts. The cutting head design also allows left- and right-hand curve cuts while producing one continuous chip, helping achieve clean and distortion-free results.

FEIN's QuickIN system enables rapid, tool-free blade changes without requiring additional adjustment. The integrated adjustable stroke provides greater control over the cutting process, while the lightweight 1.24kg tool weight without battery improves handling during extended use.

The ABSS 18 1.6 E AS is part of the 18V AMPShare battery platform and is compatible with suitable AMPShare/Bosch Professional 18V batteries. FEIN's COOLPACK technology helps extend battery service life, while Electronic Cell Protection (ECP) protects the battery against overload, overheating and total discharge.
