Whilst jewellery guillotine shears have been sold for many years their design has changed very little. Despite many products being on the market, until now nobody has considered the advantages of increasing the versatility of the cutting guide. We believe that this modification will prove to be extremely useful to end users and will provide a guillotine with improved flexibility and accuracy in use. Our new guillotines use the same traditional way of cutting as our famous 6″ guillotine shear which has been in production for over 20 years and now benefits from these amazing new features.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOur new Guillotine Range also includes a 4″ and 12″ model. The new 6″ Guillotine Shear has been hugely upgraded when compared to the previous model and any other Guillotine of its kind. Users can now cut even wider material than before even at 45° thanks to the unique design table and guide which allows wider sheet metal to be fed through the Guillotine without being obstructed by the main body of the tool. This has been a massive design flaw with other typical designs on the market, Durston has now designed and made the solution.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOther new features include an upgraded backstop with smooth bearing guides that can be tightened by hand for quick lock and release. No movement, gives precise repeat cuts as many times as you need.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAlso a Square Drive System with patent-pending rack and pinion. This system ensures maximum torque is transferred right from the pull down bar through to the blade, older models typically have a round shaft connection and drive starting from the base of the lever which are more susceptible to wear and movement, now all the power is transferred directly to the blade. This system results in maximum torque, giving a smoother cut with less force.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDurston 6″ Guillotine Shear Features\u003cbr\u003eIdeal for cutting both large and small pieces of sheet metal\u003cbr\u003eCut angles up to 60° in 5° increments\u003cbr\u003eCut wide sheet at 45°\u003cbr\u003eAdjustable, built-in mitre gauge and ruler\u003cbr\u003eHardened and Tempered cutting blade, The blade has four cutting edges, up to 20000 cuts\u003cbr\u003eUpgraded Square Drive System\u003cbr\u003eUnique Design Stainless Steel Table supports the metal as it is fed into the cutting area\u003cbr\u003eStrong and durable with a rigid, cast-iron body\u003cbr\u003eMounting Holes to secure to any work surface\u003cbr\u003eMade in the UK\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWeight: 17kg\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLength: 270mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHeight: 220mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDepth: 200mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRECOMMENDED MAX CUTTING THICKNESS FOR NON FERROUS MATERIALS: 1mm\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRECOMMENDED MAX CUTTING THICKNESS FOR SOFT STEEL: 0.5mm\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePlease Note:\u003c\/strong\u003e Shipping times are extended on this item as it is a special order.
