Tennsmith 6 ft 16 ga Mechanical Shear MSE

Both upper and lower Blades, made of High Carbon High Chrome steel, have 4 cutting edges. The Holdown bar is self leveling with neoprene inserts. Front work table is Precision Machined.

Unless a Duct Shop is cutting up 10 ft hanger strap, chances are likely that the 10 ft cuts are rarely if ever called for. Going from Tennsmith’s 10 ft to 6 ft Shear saves a footprint of 48” x 69”. These days more than ever that’s valuable shop space. Consider Tennsmith’s 6 ft 16 ga Mechanical Shear ( shown here with Performance Package Front Return)

MSE series has a solid single bar hold down system vs individual hold down feet on a LM series. The solid bar decreases the potential of marking lighter metals like Aluminum or Copper but in return has less holding force of the workpiece in the center of the machine

 

Performance Package with front return means the operator saves steps in retrieving cut material

 

3 HP Motor, 230 volt 3 Phase electrics; 40 strokes per minute, Cutting Length of 73”, and capacity of 16 ga Galvanized, 20 ga Stainless
