I just need a right handed offset snip. I thought the right handers had a red handle but when I select right hander it looks blue. Please help.

The "Left" and "Right" refers to which direction the "finished" and "waste" side will be on when you cut. Yes they will make curves easier, but that's NOT why they're named directionally. The Red handle will send your waste side off to the right, the greens will send your waste to the left, and the yellows are garbage that should be discarded immediately upon arrival. Grab a pair of reds, cut a circle right to left. That circle will have a perfect edge on it. Do the same with green snips and it'll look jagged and full of burrs. And vice versa. But the fact that you're asking these questions should tell you that a great brand like Midwest is not what you need. Buy something cheaper- I use these because I do standing seam for a living, and Midwest is the only brand that can cut through the 4 folded layers of Drexel 24 g. Painted steel that I do 100 times a day. Unless you are working with aircraft skins for old prop planes, where waste sides matter for flush mounts, or do what I do- then just get a cheaper pair.

Can you use this to cut rectangular shaped cable/wire duct and cable raceway made of PVC?

Thank you for reaching out. The snips can cut PVC sheet if they are not too thick. Some cable raceway can be too think and need to be cut with a saw blade.

Will these cut 26 gauge (0.018" thick) stainless steel sheet without problems?

yes it will I cut 16 gauge with them but you need to have a strong forarm

How do mw-p6510 and mwt-6510 differ?

The green tool cut to the left and the red tool cut straight or to the right. The tools work as expected on metal roofing.

Easily the best snips I’ve used

Excellent snips. By far the best pair of snips I’ve ever owned. Been using snips to cut cladding metal for 20 years and how I haven’t come across these I’ll never know. Shipping from USA to UK next to nothing and delivered sooner than stated. Purchasing my second pair after I’ve finished writing this. 10/10

be careful with scissors

The scissors do their job very well. I was annoyed by the rubber pad on the handle of the green scissors, which broke quickly. After just a month, they fell from a height of 1 meter. I thought they would be made of better material.
