Roper Whitney power squaring shears provide many choices of features designed for shearing efficiency and accuracy to equal the demand of present day productivity. Both compact hydraulically-operated models have built-in ruggedness that will make them last for years of normal use and include precise gauging and appropriate safety guarding.

Ideal for many light gauge shearing applications. Equipped with big shear operating controls. Fast, smooth, oil-cushioned action. Both moving and fixed blades are shearing blades of Hi-Speed steel. One piece cast shear bed is recessed for easy sheet handling.

Standard equipment includes back, front, and side gauges, bevel gauges, front arms and transportation finger guard. Bed is machined for optional side extension squaring gauge.

Features Include:
• 16 gauge maximum rated capacity (in mild steel).
• 52″ shearing length.
• Fully-enclosed control panel, with magnetic starter, selector switch and relays.
• Single or continuous* stroke operation.
• Heavy duty foot switch. If released anywhere in the stroke, crosshead returns to “up” position.
• Pressure relief valve to prevent overloading.
• Electric solenoid hydraulic valving for instantaneous response.
• Dial stroke control — accessible adjustment with stroke length indicator.
• Hydraulic power uniformly applied through double-acting cylinders.

Note: The PH452 Shear does not have continuous stroke cycle or the front arm assembly.
