Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Does this shear need to be mounted? A: Yes, absolutely. Because of the extreme leverage applied by the 30-inch handle, the shear must be bolted firmly to a heavy, stable workbench to function safely.
Q: Can I use this to cut hardened bolts or rebar? A: No, cutting hardened steel like grade-8 bolts or construction rebar will instantly chip and ruin the cutting blades. Use it only for mild steel and softer metals.
