ROD STRAIGHTENERS

Description

Vale Industries produces two distinct ranges of barshears. These are easily identified by their design and overall size. First there are the standard range of shears Designed to operate with a 5,000 PSI. power unit, these tools will operate with almost any commercially available unit. Virtually indestructible given correct usage, there are eight features of these shears that set the standard for the industry

• Mill-type bolted cap construction for easy maintenance.
• Superior sealing to prevent leaks and reduce downtime.
• Bronze-filled Teflon seal and wear rings to protect the cylinder bore from piston damage.
• All-steel suspension rings for maximum safety.
• Axial ram guide keys for precise blade alignment.
• Single return spring design for extended lifespan.
• High-strength bronze ram guide bushing to prevent ram wear.
• Alloy steel, heat-treated and plated, one-piece ram and piston for durability and easy maintenance.

The second range of shears that Vale Industries produces is a small, portable shear, powered by 10,000 PSI. hydraulics. While power units may not be common for this pressure the added advantages of size and weight savings more than offsets the additional cost of procuring one. Designed specifically to operate at 10,000 PSI., capacity was not sacrificed to accommodate the portability. Some design points of the Lightweight Shears are:

• Superior sealing to prevent leaks and reduce downtime.
• ‘T’ piston seal with backup rings for long life and prevention of leakage.
• Single return spring design for extended lifespan.
• High-strength ram guide bushing to prevent ram wear.
• Alloy steel, heat-treated and plated ram for durability and easy maintenance.
