Vinyl fence notcher for louvered cuts

The Malco VFN2 creates louvered notches in vinyl fence material up to 1/8 in thick. Its 3/4 in jaw width and 1 in notch depth suit standard louver profiles. The tool is built for installers and DIYers shaping vinyl fence panels on site.

Spring-assisted handle reduces repetitive strain

A spring assist in the black and red ergonomic handles returns the jaws automatically after each cut. This action lessens hand fatigue during long runs of notching. Heat-treated steel jaws keep their edge through sustained use.

Compact 9 in length fits in a tool belt

At 9 in overall length and 0.9 lb, the notcher stays portable for ladder work. The plastic grips resist slipping when hands are damp. The fixed 40 degree notch angle means the tool does one job precisely without adjustment.

Questions about this item

How much hand force does the spring-assisted handle reduce when I am cutting vinyl all day?

The ergonomic plastic handle with spring assist returns the jaws automatically, lowering the grip effort needed for repetitive 3/4 in louvered notches in 1/8 in vinyl.

What vinyl sheet thickness and notch size must the material already be for this tool to work?

It cuts a 1 in deep, 40 degree louvered notch in vinyl up to 1/8 in thick, so the sheet must match that thickness and the 3/4 in jaw width.

Will the heat-treated steel jaws stay sharp if I keep using my older Malco snips for straight cuts?

Yes, the heat-treated steel jaws on this notcher are dedicated to the 3/4 in louvered profile and do not interfere with separate straight-cut snips.
