Bernardo HTS 1050 Manual Guillotine Shear
The Bernardo HTS 1050 manual guillotine shear is designed for the precise cutting of large-format sheet metal up to 1.5 mm thick. Thanks to its modern design and robust construction, it offers reliability and long durability. The cutting movement is operated via side levers, while the automatic hold-down device ensures secure clamping of the sheet metal during operation. Equipped with a table with an integrated ruler and a right-angle stop on both sides, it allows for precise and repeatable work. The adjustable backgauge up to 450 mm via a handwheel ensures quick and accurate positioning of workpieces. The double-edged top and bottom blades, made of quality steel, guarantee clean cuts without burrs. With its extendable support arm, the HTS 1050 is the ideal choice for workshops and sheet metal processing departments that require precision, efficiency, and safety.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the maximum thickness for aluminum and stainless steel?
The nominal thickness of 1.5 mm refers to S235 steel (400 N/mm²). For aluminum, the capacity increases by 30–50% (approx. 2.1 mm). For AISI 304 stainless steel, the capacity is reduced by 30–40% (approx. 1.0 mm).
Are the blades replaceable?
Yes. The cutting blades are replaceable when worn or damaged. Original Bernardo spare blades are available with 3–5 working days shipping.
Does it require fixed installation or is it 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 vise.
Does the Bernardo HTS 1050 – Manual shear also cut copper and brass?
Yes. Copper and brass have lower resistance than S235 steel: the actual capacity for copper is similar to aluminum (approx. 2.1 mm). For specific alloys, contact Krollit for verification.
