S3090 Rotating Scrap & Demolition Shear

Cut More, Cut Faster

• More productive by design. Shears are designed as a system solution to cut more tons per day and make you more money by balancing machine capabilities, shear cylinder size, jaw depth and opening, and leveler arm length.
• Increase cut efficiency by up to 15 percent and reduce blade wear with the dual offset apex jaw design.
• Accurately place the jaws in optimum cutting position without moving the machine with the standard 360° rotator on the S3000 Series.
• Power is consistent through the entire cutting cycle.
• The shears are optimized for Cat excavators to ensure proper matching, optimal cycle times, and range of motion.
• Increase cutting efficiency with tapered spacer plates which reduce jamming and drag.
• The cylinder rod is completely protected inside the frame reducing downtime and the risk of damage and allowing for a slimmer design for better visibility.
• The jaw relief area allows material to fall away freely without hindering the next cutting cycle.

Long-Lasting Quality

• Reduce maintenance costs with the new Bolt-on Piercing Tip. Dowels protect the bolts from stress that leads to loosening and a bushing equalizes force on both halves of the tip to help prevent splitting.
• Work confidently with demanding hydraulic requirements. Major hydraulic components are built with a 4 to 1 safety factor and can withstand pressure spikes up to 20,000-psi (1378 bar).
• Increase overall durability with the solid plate construction of the upper jaw.
• The housing is designed with a 60 percent safety factor in yield strength and high-stress areas are built with extra thick plates.
• The heel plate is constructed of AR400 high-wear resistant material to provide long life between weld build up and replacement.
• Endure high forces with confidence with the oversized torque tube.

Easy to Maintain

• Easily and safely complete maintenance tasks. Shears can be greased at ground level along with the machine stick cylinder pin and boom pin.
• Reduce downtime with field serviceable swivels. Removing and resealing can be done quickly and easily while the shear is mounted to the machine, without the need to take it to a shop.
• Service and adjust the pivot group without the need for any special tools. The side play can be easily adjusted by simply tightening the pin.
• Easily change the tip and flip the blade in thirty minutes with standard tools.
• Access the cylinder’s hoses and speed valve easily from the side of the shear. This feature eliminates the need for a cover that can fall off and need repaired.
• You are supported. The Cat Dealer Network is your one point of contact for all your service needs.

Options to Meet Your Needs

• Connecting your shear to a variety of machines has never been easier. Dual high-pressure ports allow the shear to attach to any compatible machine regardless of the hydraulic layout.
• Meet your specific needs with straight and rotating configurations and boom and stick mount options.
  • Straight – S2000 Series
    • Boom mounted
    • Used in secondary demolition and scrap applications
    • Rotator is eliminated, reducing maintenance costs
    • Larger shears can be used on smaller machine size classes
  • Rotating – S3000 Series
    • Boom or Stick mounted
    • Used in scrap, primary, and secondary demolition applications
    • Provides optimal cycle times and positioning
  • Boom Mounted – Ideal for scrap applications, boom mounted shears allow for easier handling and operation.
  • Stick Mounted – Ideal for demolition applications, stick mounted shears are compatible with larger machines and provide a greater reach.
