The Hydraulic Alligator Shear is a heavy-duty cutting machine specially designed for scrap metal recycling and processing. Featuring a hinged jaw that opens and closes like an alligator’s mouth, it is capable of cutting steel bars, pipes, angles, channels, I-beams, and rebar into shorter lengths quickly and safely.
With a powerful hydraulic system and alloy steel blades, the alligator shear ensures precise cutting, high efficiency, and long service life. It is widely used in scrap yards, recycling plants, steel mills, and dismantling sites, helping businesses improve metal processing productivity and reduce manual labor costs.
