Frequently Asked Questions
What is the maximum thickness for aluminum and stainless steel?
The nominal thickness of 1.2 mm refers to S235 steel (400 N/mm²). For aluminum, the capacity increases by 30–50% (approx. 1.7 mm). For AISI 304 stainless steel, the capacity is reduced by 30–40% (approx. 0.8 mm).
Are the blades replaceable?
Yes. The cutting blades are replaceable when worn or damaged. Original Bernardo replacement blades available with 3–5 business days shipping.
Does it require fixed installation or can it be used on a workbench?
Most Bernardo lever shears are fixed to a workbench or floor with bolts. They do not require a special foundation. More compact versions can also be used on a bench vice.
Does the Bernardo BHS 300 x 1.2 – Manual Shear also cut copper and brass?
Yes. Copper and brass have lower resistance than S235 steel: the actual capacity on copper is similar to aluminum (approx. 1.7 mm). For specific alloys, contact Krollit for verification.
Are assistance and spare parts available?
Original spare parts available with 3–5 business days shipping. Customer support in Italian available.
