Hydraulic Shears for Excavator

Hydraulic shears for excavators are specialized attachments designed to be mounted on the arm or boom of hydraulic excavators. They are essential tools in numerous industries that require efficient and precise cutting and demolition operations.

Many customers called us to inquire about hydraulic shears, but they couldn't explain which hydraulic shear they wanted. Here we will talk in detail about how to distinguish hydraulic shears.

Excavator hydraulic shears are divided into two categories: mechanical type and hydraulic type.

The mechanical type of shear uses the excavator's bucket cylinder to apply force to the connecting rod rocker arm, which then exerts pressure on the upper shear body. The lower shear body is fixed to the bucket rod without requiring additional components. By using an auxiliary oil cylinder and hydraulic system, it can perform shearing operations. It has a compact structure and is easy to install. However, it doesn't provide as much cutting force as hydraulic shears. On the positive side, it is cost-effective and simple to install.

Hydraulic excavator hydraulic shears are divided into fixed and rotable types. The fixed hydraulic shear has its own hydraulic cylinder, which uses the thrust of the cylinder to perform shearing. The advantage is that the shearing force is large, but the disadvantage is that it cannot rotate and it is inconvenient to find the correct position when dismantling or shearing the steel structure.

Rotary hydraulic shears are divided into two types: single cylinder and double cylinder. The double cylinder type is mainly used for installing extension arms for demolition, shearing steel bars, etc. The single-cylinder type shears is mainly used in the car scrapping market, scrap metal processing plants, etc. In this case, there is no need to add a long arm. Relatively speaking, the hydraulic shearing force of a single cylinder is greater than that of a double cylinder because its cylinder is thicker and more powerful.

Excavator hydraulic shears are also used for demolition, crushing concrete, cutting tree branches, etc. Call us today when you need to purchase hydraulic shears for excavator.
