Hydraulic Shears

Straight cuts. Clean edges. Production speed.

A hydraulic shear is the fastest, cleanest way to cut sheet and plate to length — no kerf, no heat-affected zone, no secondary cleanup. Arclight Dynamics offers the Piranha Hydraulic Metal Shear, U.S.-built and engineered to deliver consistent, square cuts on mild steel, stainless, and aluminum shift after shift.

For shops running production volume, a Piranha shear pays for itself in time saved on every part — faster than plasma for straight cuts, more accurate than torch work, and easier on your operator than a band saw or chop saw setup. Built on the same heavy-iron Piranha platform that’s been in fab shops for decades, with the parts availability, training, and service that come with U.S.-built equipment supported by the Arclight Dynamics team in Bend, Oregon.
