1. Single-Cylinder Excavator Shear
A single-cylinder excavator shear uses one hydraulic cylinder to generate the cutting force. Its relatively simple structure makes it easy to operate and maintain.
It is suitable for cutting:
- Steel pipes
- Rebar
- Light steel structures
- Scrap metal
- Small and medium-sized metal components
This type is a practical choice for general demolition and metal recycling projects where extreme cutting force is not required.

2. Double-Cylinder Excavator Shear
A double-cylinder excavator shear uses two hydraulic cylinders to provide stronger and more balanced cutting force. It is generally designed for heavier materials and demanding working conditions.
Typical applications include:
- Heavy steel structures
- Thick steel plates
- Large steel pipes
- Industrial equipment
- Heavy scrap metal
For contractors handling large amounts of heavy steel, a double-cylinder design can provide the cutting power and stability required for continuous operation.

3. Hydraulic Rotating Excavator Shear
A hydraulic rotating shear is equipped with a hydraulic rotation mechanism that allows the attachment to change its cutting direction.
The rotation function provides greater flexibility when working around buildings, steel structures, and irregular scrap piles. Operators can position the shear more accurately without constantly repositioning the excavator.
It is widely used for:
- Building demolition
- Steel structure dismantling
- Industrial plant demolition
- Scrap metal processing
- Complex demolition sites

4. Heavy-Duty Excavator Metal Shear
Heavy-duty excavator metal shears are designed for high-load cutting applications. They normally feature reinforced structures, high-strength cutting components, and powerful hydraulic systems.
They are commonly used in large-scale:
- Steel structure demolition
- Industrial demolition
- Scrap yards
- Metal recycling plants
- Machinery dismantling projects
This type is a better choice when the job involves thick and heavy metal materials or long periods of continuous operation.

5. Scrap Metal Shear
A scrap metal shear is mainly designed for recycling and processing discarded metal. It can be installed on excavators used in scrapyards, recycling facilities, and demolition projects.
Common materials include:
- Scrap steel
- Steel pipes
- Machinery parts
- Vehicle frames
- Structural steel
Its main advantage is the ability to reduce large metal components into smaller sections, making transportation, sorting, and further processing easier.

6. Excavator Demolition Shear
An excavator demolition shear is designed specifically for structural dismantling. It can cut steel beams, pipes, reinforcement bars, and other metal components during building or industrial demolition.
Compared with general-purpose shears, demolition models focus more on strength, durability, and stable cutting performance.
They are suitable for:
- Building demolition
- Bridge demolition
- Factory dismantling
- Steel structure removal
- Concrete structure demolition

How to Choose the Right Excavator Shear Attachment?
The right excavator shear attachment depends on the material, cutting thickness, excavator size, and working environment.
For light metal cutting and general recycling, a single-cylinder shear may be sufficient. For thick steel and heavy scrap, a double-cylinder or heavy-duty model is more suitable. If the job requires frequent changes in cutting direction, a hydraulic rotating shear can provide better flexibility.
Before purchasing, buyers should also check hydraulic flow, excavator weight, attachment dimensions, cutting capacity, and replacement blade availability. Matching the shear with the excavator correctly can improve cutting efficiency and reduce unnecessary wear.
