Product Details
With its welded steel frame, this hydraulic sheet metal shear offers a long lifespan of use cutting thick materials for high production. The shear features a 52" length and has a maximum capacity of 10 gauge mild steel and a minimum capacity of 24 gauge mild steel. It is powered by a 7.5 HP motor that runs on 220-volt 3-phase power. The industrial-grade hydraulic system is located at the front for easy fluid changes and operates at 35 to 47 strokes per minute, enhancing production speed. The shearing carriage rides on hardened ways and uses heavy-duty bearings to reduce friction, while a manually adjustable 23.62" backgauge ensures precise repeatability. The heavy-duty table with roller bars aids in sliding material into the machine, and side gauges maintain the cut at 90° without the need for a guiding line. Users can switch between jog mode for inching the blade down, single cycle mode for one cut per pedal push, and automatic cycling mode for continuous cutting. An adjustable rake angle dial helps minimize burr and reduce strain on hydraulics, and the convenient blade gap adjustment eliminates folding and twisting. The shear comes standard with high carbon chromium blades, featuring 2-sided upper blades and 4-sided lower blades that can be flipped and resharpened. Hydraulic hold-downs secure the sheet to the table, preventing material lifting and improving blade life. Its rigid, fully welded steel plate construction minimizes flex, ensuring years of accuracy, while a shadow line provides a reference line for precise cuts. The SH-5210-HD plate shear includes a 1-year parts warranty and a lifetime technical support service via phone, provided by a team with hands-on metalworking experience.
