Ace Grinding has a shear knife for every metal cutting job. We specialize in tailoring a knife for
your specific job. Below are the two most commonly used materials we use in our shear blades:
|
-
AISI D-2 high-carbon, high-chrome air hardening tool steel. D-2 HcHc has 12-14% chromium material
and is designed for maximum number of cuts on a mechanical shear of up to, and including, 1/4" mild
steel capacity. It can also be used on hydraulic shears of up to, and including, 3/8" mild steel.
When cutting stainless steel, reduce the above capacity limits by 50%.
-
A modified H-13 tool steel is used for shearing metal in excess of 1/4" thick mild steel. This grade
can also be used when a customer does not require the long life of our D-2 HcHc steel, but wants
something better than a standard carbon tool steel.

|
All of our shear blades are precision made and heat treated in the most modern furnaces. We carefully
inspect all knives before shipping them to our customers.
Ace Grinding's sales department can determine the right shear knife for your operation given the
following information:
|
-
Maximum thickness to be sheared.
-
Description of material to be sheared.
-
Make and model of the machine.

Our computer controlled German-made grinding machines, along with our experienced operators, allow us to maintain
accurate tolerances.
