The latest incantation of the Cayman shear as well as all of the previous versions are manufactured using&nbsp;<strong>only the highest quality components and certified steels available<\/strong>. Original Swedish&nbsp;<strong>HARDOX and WELDOX<\/strong>&nbsp;are used throughout to give our customers a shear that offers the best technical solutions on the market today and guarantees them a tough and reliable shear for any job application.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Strong and resilient body<\/strong>: the mechanics and components are suitably protected from inevitable shocks and blows. The shears external frame and body is manufactured from specialised Swedish steels with a very high strength and a high elastic limit (700Mpa). The same high-quality steel is used to manufacture the shears mobile jaw while the lower fixed jaw is manufactured using highly wear resistant HARDOX steel. This combination of high-end materials allows us to manufacture a shear that can cope with the high stresses subjected on the shear on a daily basis.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Wide jaw opening<\/strong>: the heaviest cutting jobs require a large discharge area on the non-cutting side of the mobile jaw. By using quality steels in the design and production of the shear, we can build a shear with a high cutting force and a large discharge area without sacrificing strength or durability.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Large-bore cylinder<\/strong>: An oversized cylinder makes it possible to achieve maximum cutting force in all models while still staying compact. The central pin is perfectly mated to the pin housing and is resistant to thrust damage because of our special production procedure known as \u2018cryogenic shrink fitting\u2019. As the name suggests, the pin is first super cooled using liquid nitrogen to allow it to fit perfectly and snugly in the pin housing. This manufacturing technique achieves maximum strength and durability of the central pin. A spherical joint keeps the hydraulic cylinder and mobile jaw correctly aligned at all times there by preventing blade distortion.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"gb-element-aa753f9e news_seo\">\n<div class=\"gb-element-91a41d48\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-8f761849 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Notable jobs and case studies involving Cayman shears<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"gb-text\">The&nbsp;<strong>Cayman RC 120<\/strong>&nbsp;demolition shear was used in the demolition of the Bremen, a Turkish-flagged ship that famously ran aground on the beaches of Erdeven, France<\/p>\n\n\n\n<a class=\"gb-text gb-text-93953a98 btn-blu\" href=\"https:\/\/www.dailymotion.com\/video\/x16bkmu\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Regarder la vid\u00e9o Dailymotion<\/a>\n\n\n\n<a class=\"gb-text gb-text-322b0cba btn-blu\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=_iL-IJhYxpk\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Regarder la vid\u00e9o AFP<\/a>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"gb-text\"><br>The&nbsp;<strong>Zato FCE 30R<\/strong>&nbsp;demolition shear was an invaluable tool used in clearing the rouble of the tragic Ponte Morandi tenement bridge which collapsed in Genoa in 2018<\/p>\n\n\n\n<a class=\"gb-text gb-text-35d41a97 btn-blu\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=W8JKcg_Aq3g\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Watch video<\/a>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>From our YouTube Channel<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<a class=\"gb-text gb-text-a9906e7c btn-blu\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=VJBFaBPz-Zs\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Our last video<\/a>\n\n\n\n<a class=\"gb-text gb-text-87bcbd9a btn-blu\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=7VMrpbIuBMw\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">The Cayman 40R tackles bulky scrap<\/a>\n\n\n\n<a class=\"gb-text gb-text-1e8ba7c2 btn-blu\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=dmnNXE-yHus\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">From the USA<\/a>\n\n\n\n<a class=\"gb-text gb-text-0674d3ab btn-blu\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=99H5Ct5OA9w\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">From Toronto<\/a>\n\n\n\n<a class=\"gb-text gb-text-e2275df8 btn-blu\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=m3rwqzzc2nM\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">From Bergen, Norway: the Cayman 90R<\/a>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Cayman demolition shears: 30 years of continual evolution The history of the Cayman shear and the foundation of Zato are inexorably linked, overlapping and blending into a single, simultaneous experience.
