Verachtert Work Tools

HYDRAULIC SCRAP SHEAR VHS

Verachtert’s new line of small mobile scrap and demolition shears VHS/3-series for hydraulic excavators add strength and dramatically increase processing time. The robust shear and knife design improves cutting performance and the hardened piercing tip of the upper jaw maximizes productivity when piercing is required. All VHS-shear models are equipped with field proven 360° rotators ensuring a quick and precise placement of the jaws in an optimum cutting position without moving the excavator.

*Weight exludes mounting bracket. All steel A36 equivalent. The profiles above provide an approximation of shear cutting capabilities. Cutting capacities shown are based on material made of mild steel, HEX operating pressure of 350 bar, and shear knives in good condition. Lower operating pressures, dull knife edges, and harder steel will reduce cutting capacities.
