Applications in steel construction
The hydraulic flat-steel shear FS 800 cuts flat steel with a square cut for sizing and processing in steel fabrication. The hydraulic drive applies the cutting force evenly, so that even wide flat steel is sheared smoothly and without deformation. It is suited to the repeated cutting of strip material and flat sections to length.
Typical applications
- Cutting flat steel and strip steel to size
- Sizing flat bar for cleats, gusset plates and connection parts
- Cutting structural steel with a square cut prior to further processing
- Preparing flat-steel blanks for welded and bolted connections
- Series cutting of identical lengths in steel fabrication
Which businesses use it
Used in steel and metal fabrication, in locksmith shops, forges and the steel trade for cutting flat steel.
Frequently asked questions
What material can the flat-steel shear cut?
The FS 800 is designed for shearing flat steel. It cuts strip and flat material with a square cut and is suited to repeated sizing in steel fabrication, for example for cleats and connection parts.
What advantage does the hydraulic drive offer when shearing?
The hydraulic drive applies the cutting force evenly and in a controlled manner. This produces a clean cut even with wider flat steel and reduces deformation of the cut edge compared with abrupt cutting.
