Press Brakes, Shears & Machining

Used Cincinnati Model 14 Shear: Sell or Buy at Auction

Cincinnati Incorporated is an American manufacturer of press brakes, shears, laser cutting systems, and additive manufacturing equipment. Cincinnati machines, particularly press brakes and hydraulic shears, are workhorses of American metal fabrication shops, known for robust construction and long service life.

The Cincinnati Model 14 is a mechanical squaring shear from Cincinnati Incorporated, built for clean, square cuts in mild steel sheet and lighter-gauge stock rather than heavy plate. Like the rest of Cincinnati's mechanical shear line, it runs off a flywheel and clutch tripped by a foot treadle, and it uses a raked upper blade that shears progressively across the width of the sheet to hold down cutting force, paired with a back gauge for repeat-length cuts, hold-down clamps, and a squaring arm so parts leave the table already dimensioned. Metal fabrication shops and HVAC ductwork manufacturers look for this size of Cincinnati shear specifically because it delivers fast, square blanks on lighter material without the floor space, tonnage, or cost of a full plate shear. This is the same Cincinnati known for its press brakes and shears across American fabrication floors, and its reputation for rugged cast construction and long service life means a well-maintained Model 14 built in Harrison, Ohio can still hold a tight, true cut decades on. That track record is exactly why the model draws steady interest at auction from smaller job shops and sheet metal fabricators replacing worn equipment on a budget: a functioning unit is dependable, no-frills capacity a buyer can put to work the day it lands. KD Auctions markets these listings to its network of 500,000+ industry contacts, putting a Model 14 in front of the sheet metal and fabrication buyers actively shopping Cincinnati equipment and this class of squaring shear.
