In fact, I didn't know it would cut backer board. I built a shed with 5/16" hardiboard siding all the way around, and it was one of the life savers of the project. **Q: I want to add trim around windows, can this be used on already installed cement fiber board?** A: No, the cutting mechanism on the tool needs at least 1” space behind the board in order to travel freely up and down while it cuts ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great Tool… *by M***Z on September 24, 2025* I have come across hundreds of tools in my 28 years as a residential contractor.

This is one of the best gadgets I have ever bought. Just amazing how easily it cuts cement board. And no dust! I wish I could give it 6 stars. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Easy to use and works great *by D***D on March 20, 2026* This is the first time I have ever needed to cut Hardi Backer (1/4 inch thick cement board) and this tool worked fantastic. Looking online, there are a number of different ways to cut cement board, but the other methods seemed prone to cracking or having rough edges. Since I have never used any method other than this pactool to cut cement board, I cannot verify this is true, however, I can say the pactool provided very smooth edges without cracking. I it was also easy to cut corners and round the edges. Super easy to use right out of the box. Just envision cutting cement board using a pair of scissors and you get the concept of how this tool works. ## Frequently Bought Together - PacTool SS724 Snapper Shear Pro - Cutting Tool for Fiber Cement Board - Power Shears Professional Power Tools - Diablo Carbide Jig Saw Blade for Fiber Cement & Plaster - T-Shank, 4" Length, Carbide Tooth Design, 6 TPI - DJT141HM - PacTool Gecko Gauge, The Original Home Siding Installation Kit - For Use with 5/16 Inch Fiber Cement Siding and James Hardie Siding, Includes 2 Gecko Gauge Clamps --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.com.pa/products/124757843-pactool-snapper-shear-pro-fiber-cement-cutting-tool-for-siding](https://www.desertcart.com.pa/products/124757843-pactool-snapper-shear-pro-fiber-cement-cutting-tool-for-siding) --- *Product available on Desertcart Panama* *Store origin: PA* *Last updated: 2026-08-05*
