Key Knife Taper Tip | Cutting Tools

Key Knife’s taper tip solution performs the same as conventional knives, but mills benefit from lower operating costs. Key Knife’s Unconventional knife utilizes a holder and a replaceable tip that can be ground the same number of times as a conventional knife. Now mills only pay for the part of the knife that actually gets used.

Advantage

• Low Operating Cost - Two piece system utilizes a replaceable/regrindable tip, and holder with a multi-year part life. Taper Tip enables mills to now only pay for the steel that gets used, instead of having to replace the entire knife after only using 10-30% of the steel.
• Holder - CNC machined from 4140 steel. Part is designed/manufactured for longevity and has a multi-year part life.
• Taper Lock - Innovative feature locks replaceable tip to holder.
• Regrindable/Replaceable Tip - Manufactured from A8 modified tool steel (D2 also available). Designed to match same number of grinds as conventional solution being replaced.
• Applications - Disc and drum chippers that use ½” or thicker conventional knives.
