Roper Whitney No.152 and G52 Shears

Roper Whintey Pexto foot squaring shears are the industry's most accurate. They are easy to operate and offer precisise shearing, long life and dependability. Shatter - proof transparent finger guards are amoung their safety features. All are provided with precise gauging and holddowns for cutting / shearing accuracy.

  • maximum rated capacity : 16 gauge mild steel
  • built to machine tool standards
  • triple - action shearing

Roper Whitney model 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. This contributes to easier operation. The Roper Whitney model No. 152 shear with handle a 52" sheet .

The Roper Whitney model 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. 152 shears, but also has an adjustable side slitting gauge. This shear may also be used for standard shearing of sheets up to 52 inches long. It includes a lever actuated holdout, finger guear and treadle stops.

Roper Whitney PH 452 and PH 52 Power Squaring Shears

Roper Whitney PH  452 Powered Squaring Sheet Metal Shears


Roper Whitney power squaring shears provide many choices of features designed for shearing efficiency and shearing accuracy to equal the demand of present day productivity. Both of the hydraulically operated Roper Whitney (PH452 and PH52) shearing models have built-in ruggedness that will make them last for years of normal use. Within the many sheet metal shear models is the capability of shearing up to 12 gauge mild steel and up to 6 foot sheet lengths. Some Roper Whitney shears are designed for use where space is a consideration. All of the Roper Whitney Hydraulic powered squaring shears include precise gauging and appropriate safety guarding.

Specifications of the Roper Whitney Models PH452 and PH52 power shears:

    • Max. Rated Capacity - 16 gauge (mild steel)
    • 52" Shear Lengths

Compact, fully-integrated, hydraulically powered shearing units. These shears are ideal for many light gauge shearing applications. Equipped with big shear operating controls. Fast, smooth, oil - cushioned action. Both moving and fixed blades are shearing blades of Hi-Speed steel. One piece cast shear bed is recessed for easy sheet handling. Standard equipment includes back, front, and side gauges, bevel gauges, front arms and transportation finger guard. Bed is machined for optional side extension squaring gauge.

Other Features of the Roper Whitney power squaring shears include:

    • Fully enclosed control panel, with magnetic starter, selector switch and relays
    • Single or continuous stroke operation.( Continuous on PH52 )
    • Full Length 45 Stokes per Minute
    • 3/4 Length 60 Stokes per Minute
    • 1/2 Length 75 Stokes per Minute
    • 1/4 Length 100 Stokes per Minute
    • Heavy duty foot switch. If released anywhere in the stroke, crosshead returns to "up" position.
    • Pressure relief valve to prevent overloading.
    • Electric solenoid hydraulic valving for instantaneous response.
    • Dial stroke control - accessible adjustment with stroke length indicator.
    • Hydraulic power uniformly applied through double-acting cylinders.
