Scrapers / Strobe Blanks
Our carbide Strobe Blanks are used, for example, brazed into the steel body of saw blades, to eject sawdust from the cut and thus enable smoother and cleaner sawing. Our standard grade for this application is WK20M, whose properties make it perfect for this type of requirement.
Strobe Blanks are available in standard length 310 mm as well as fixed lengths.
Bars
We offer bars for machining wood in a standard length of 310 mm. In addition, our carbide rods are available in rectangular design (WK), with one-sided angle of 30 ° (WKS), as well as with two-sided angles of 30° and 40° (WKSS). As standard, we offer our grades WK10M and WK20M in woodworking.
In addition, we can offer you solid carbide planer knives in our grade WK40F. Here our offer is completely designed for your needs by HSS (high-speed steel), carbide-tipped and solid carbide parts.
