Shearing
Straight-line shearing for custom blanks, long strips, and repeat production. Capacity up to 3/8″ at 16′, or up to 1/2″ on a separate 12′ shear.
Cut to size. Ready for your next step.
From sheet and plate to ready-to-use blanks, Blue Star Metals provides shearing for straight cuts, custom sizes, and repeat production. Whether you need long strips, resized sheets, or consistent blanks, we help prepare your material for the next stage of manufacturing.
Our 16-foot shear handles material up to 3/8″ thick, while a separate 12-foot shear cuts material up to 1/2″ thick. We match your cut length, material, and thickness to the right machine so you get the capacity your project needs.
Ordering material cut to size can reduce preparation time in your shop and simplify handling, forming, welding, and assembly. Send us your dimensions, material, thickness, and quantities, and we’ll help plan an efficient approach for your next order or ongoing production.
