WHAT makes our blades superior to all other blades?
Imported Swedish Hardox AR (Abrasion Resistant) Plate is used for all components. This is a very hard and abrasion resistant steel, commonly seen to add wear plates to excavator and bulldozer blades. We don’t know of a better – longer lasting – steel. And it is twice the strength of the steel used by our competitors. We know, we actually measured the hardness of their blades.
Why do our blades last so much longer than the others?
First the hardness of the steel is one of the primary factors affecting blade life. We are the hardest blades in the industry as far as we know. The PDC and carbide inserts protect the tooth. As long as the PDC and carbide inserts are not missing or chipped too much the blade will just keep on cutting. So the short answer is that it depends on what you are cutting. We have several videos in the gallery that gives tips on ensuring long blade life. Frequent inspections and replacement of worn down hardfacing is key. Our hardfacing has tungsten carbide grit embedded in the molten metal. That is a very important part of our design.
WHY DO OUR BLADES CUT FASTER AND CLEANER THAN THE OTHERS?
Our blades were born out of many months of actually cutting the rocky streets of Salt Lake City, Utah. Our own crews using our own saws and blades allowed us to continually revise and adjust the design of the teeth, the wheel and other critical factors such as spoils launch angles, gullet volumes, critical wear areas and hardfacing. We optimized all of these factors to ensure that the saw can cut as fast and as clean as possible. Moreover your blade will last longer than the competition as well as long as you follow our recommendations.
