The Roper Whitney Pexto PH-52 power squaring shear features compact, fully-integrated, hydraulically powered units that are ideal for many light gauge shearing applications. The shear offers triple-action shearing which includes relief on both edges of both the fixed and moving blades. The blade design eliminates blade-to-blade friction, provides “bite” to minimize sheet movement under shearing stress and produces double penetration in the cutting action. This shear will handle a 52″ sheet and has a maximum rated capacity of 16 gauge for mild steel.
