Piercing blade maintenance is crucial to productivity and safe shear operation. An improper blade
gap may cause material jamming and/or blade breakage.
Use the following procedure to check for wear.
1.
Slowly close jaws until the piercing blades are flush with the
top edge of the razor blade.
2.
Check gap with a tape measure. Acceptable gap is 5/8”.
3. Check the condition of the piercing blades with a straight
edge or square.
4.
Check the profile along the blades.
5. Badly worn blades must be replaced.
However, slightly worn blades may
be squared up with a grinder and
a square. This may be repeated
until a maximum of 1/2” of material
is removed from the lower piercing
edge.
6. Typical use requires blade
replacement at approximately 200
hours; heavy piercing requires
replacement at approximately 40
hours. These are general guidelines
only. Replace blades based on wear
not hours of operation.
7.
Width of blades, top to bottom, may taper 0.060” (2 mm) total. Bottom edges may be worn to a
maximum radius of 3/16”.
