Kett Tool Fiber-Cement Shear Virtually Eliminates Airborne Dust

CINCINNATI, Ohio – (Dec. 17, 2015) – Kett Tool promotes a healthy, clean working environment for contractors and installers with its KD-1495 Fiber-Cement Shear. The handheld shear quickly cuts fiber-cement siding and backer board up to 5/8” thick using a shearing action that leaves behind virtually no airborne dust.

“Cutting cement board and siding with a traditional circular saw generates a lot of airborne dust that not only increases clean-up time, but also dust inhalation risk,” said Kathy Conlon, president, Kett Tool Company. “The KD-1495 Fiber-Cement Shear greatly reduces harmful airborne dust, providing a healthier working environment with less clean-up time.”

The KD-1495 features a powerful 5 amp pistol grip, 2500 RPM variable-speed electric motor that easily cuts through fiber-cement board (up to 5/8" thick), cement siding or backer board – all at speeds of up to 26 inches per minute. The tool is lightweight at 4.5 pounds, and has a cutting radius of 10 inches for maximum maneuverability. The rugged shear blades are precision made in the U.S. featuring A2 tool steel blades for prolonged durability, and are quickly replaced to reduce downtime on the job.
