Shearing vs. Sawing

Sheared Edge

Sawed Edge

1. Shearing Leaves NO Burr on the Panel Edge
2. Shearing Never Damages Paint
3. Shearing Never Produces Metal Chips That If Undetected, Make Rust Spots That Can Eventually Penetrate a Metal Panel
4. Shearing Does Not Generate Potentially Damaging Noise
5. Shearing Does Not Produce Flying Metal Chips That Can Embed in Skin or Eyes
6. Shearing blades last much longer because there is no heat generated
7. Shearing Will Not Risk Compromising Your Metal Warranty

THE BOTTOM LINE: FOR THE SAFEST SOLUTION THAT TAKES THE BEST CARE OF YOUR EXPENSIVE METAL, SHEAR - DON'T SAW.
