Hydraulic alligator shears play an important role for metal recyclers by cutting things down to size – literally – enabling shredders to handle oversized materials that would otherwise be difficult or sometimes impossible to digest. They also allow the recycler to “clean” or prepare scrap for shredding by removing unwanted fittings or other parts the shredder may not accept. This adds value to the scrap and improves the quality of the finished frag.

Our hydraulic alligator shears have cylinders with brake and chrome-plated and tempered rods. In addition, the gaskets used have been devised specifically for high speeds and pressures.
