Foot Squaring Shears
Roper Whitney Pexto foot squaring shears are the industry's most accurate.
They are easy to operate and offer precise shearing, long life and dependability.
Shatter-proof transparent finger guards are among their safety features. All are provided
with precise gauging and holddowns for cutting accuracy.
* Maximum Rated Capacity 16 gauge mild steel
* Built to machine tool standards
* Triple-action shearing
No. 137 and No. 152 shears offer triple-action shearing which includes relief on both edges of both
the fixed and moving blades. It eliminates blade-to-blade friction, provides "bite" to eliminate
sheet movement under shearing stress and produces double penetration in the cutting action. All
contribute to easier operation. The No. 137 will accommodate a 36" sheet, the No. 152 will handle
a 52" sheet.
The No. G52 shear incorporates a gap-in-housing feature which permits slitting a sheet of any
length (by successive cuts) up to 18 inches wide. It's gauging package is similar to the No.
137 and No. 152 shears, but also has an adjustable side slitting gauge. It may also be used for
standard searing of sheets up to 52 inches long. It includes a lever actuated holdout, finger
guard and treadle stops.
