Specialty Blades can supply solid carbide blades and machine knives in many shapes and sizes.
With optimum grade selection, sub micron grain size tungsten carbide can
be sharpened to a razor edge without the inherent brittleness
frequently associated with conventional carbide. Although not
as shock-resistant as steel, carbide is extremely wear-resistant,
with hardness equivalent to Rc 75-80. Blade life of at least
50X conventional blade steels can be expected if chipping and
breakage is avoided.
Specialty Blades stands ready to assist you in achieving the optimum
balance of properties that will allow you to get maximum performance
from your carbide blades. |
