Introducing the CTA #2209 Mini HD Metal Trim Tool. When access is limited and precision matters, full-size tools can get in the way. That’s why CTA Tools developed the #2209 Mini HD Metal Trim Tool — a compact, heavy-duty solution built for controlled prying in tight spaces. This new release is the mini version of the proven CTA #1452 HD Metal Trim Tool. It delivers the same strength and durability technicians trust — now in a smaller, more maneuverable format designed for confined work areas.
At just 5 inches long, the #2209 offers improved handling and leverage where larger tools simply won’t fit. Whether you’re working inside interior panels, around tight trim edges, or in restricted electronic housings, this compact design gives you the control you need without sacrificing power. The tool features a slim tapered body and an ultra-thin tip measuring less than 0.0218 inches, allowing it to slip cleanly into narrow seams. The rigid metal construction minimizes flex, helping prevent surface damage while maintaining precise control. 
The #2209 includes both a straight tip and a curved tip, giving technicians flexibility across a range of applications. From trim removal and interior detailing to delicate electronics work and fine panel adjustments, this tool adapts to the task at hand. Originally developed for sheet metal and aerospace applications, the design emphasizes strength and long-term durability — making it equally at home in automotive, body, and specialty repair environments.
