Product Overview

Description

The Eastwood Rotary Metal Shear is the perfect addition to any fabricators work bench.

The Eastwood Rotary Metal Shear with Ratcheting Handle Features:

Throatless design
Reversible ratcheting handle
Cuts in aluminum, steel and other mild metals
Rotary design allows for both straight and curved cuts

It is precision designed and manufactured to allow for quick and easy trimming of sheet metal pieces and the rotary design allows for both straight and curved cuts. Hardened, round, cutting dies produce clean, burr-free cuts in aluminum, steel and other mild metals.

With a strong steel construction, this Rotary Cutting Shear and throatless design makes it perfect for cutting up to 16 gauge sheet metal. The reversible ratcheting handle makes it easy to operate and maneuver while cutting. The blades draw the material into the throatless body so that the user does not need to feed the material into the tool.

Reviews

Rated 5 out of 5 by Steve SEC Services from Great tool. Perfect fit for my shop. Small but does the work of a large shear. I can cut corners and radius where a straight shear can't. Just perfect.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Bombero from great tool at a great price Rotary tool was used to cut floor pans and make patches to the cab of my 1957 dodge pu.

Rated 5 out of 5 by MYTHAGO from GREAT PRODUCT, GREAT SERVICE! Wow! Solid, well made shear. Heavy cast iron frame and good ratchet handle... might make a wooden extension for it though! Cuts like butter. Caught this on sale, then saw it had dropped a little more. Called customer service and they dropped it to the new price.....and acted like they were happy to do so! First time purchase from Eastwood... I'll be back for more.... Great company to deal with!!!

Rated 5 out of 5 by Drew from Cuts like a boss I have been using my rotary shear daily since it arrived and I love it. Very solid piece of equipment that cuts like a boss. It is fast and easy to use and I love that it has basically replaced the need for cutting discs on an angle grinder. No more noise and sparks and metal dust all over my shop. I wish I had bought this years ago.

Rated 4 out of 5 by Marty from Great tool, just hoping it stands up This tool is great for cutting sheet metal bands! It's saving me from getting carpel tunnel in my wrist using snips. It's consistent and bench-mounts nicely. Solid design except that on day one the ratchet handle is already starting to catch not allowing full ratchet travel.... so that's a bit concerning, hence 4/5 stars. WD-40 will help that I suppose. Otherwise it's great.

Questions & Answers

An answer below states replacement blades should be available at the end of 2022, do you have any in stock?

Asked by: BluDcel

That project got delayed some, sorry. We have ordered them now, but it will take time for them to get here (approximately May or June 2023).

I would like to purchase this, but I will not unless it has replacement blades. I bet there are many people that will not buy it -UNLESS- the blades are available. Please realize that you are limiting your sales by not having replacements. So, when?

Asked by: BluDcel

We currently have replacement blades in the product pipeline - I would expect them by end of year.

Does Eastwood plan on offering replacement blades? Is the thought that the blade will not need to be replaced, after 1000lf?

We currently do not have blades in production yet. However, if you keep posted we may be putting out blades sometime in the future.
