Machined springs overcome wound limitations
For those engineers familiar with the traditional wound spring format, Abssac is offering a new way of looking at reliability, performance and attachment by use of a machined spring.
The Wiss snips also proved much easier to use, needing less effort to make a cut.
The unsurpassed performance of the Wiss M3R is attributable to a combination of special features including: a patented, adjustable clutch pivot mechanism, which distributes the load evenly on the bolt, thereby increasing life; a superior quality spring; precision blades with computer designed serrations allowing the cutting force to be spread uniformly, thereby reducing wear and increasing blade life, as well as comfortable security grips.
