GYPSUM BOARD KNIVES WHICH DELIVER SIGNIFICANT BENEFITS
A TINY CHANGE FOR MAXIMUM GAIN
Knives are a small, simple part of the wallboard production process, but they’re also one of the most crucial.
Underperforming, short-life or blunt knives can cause bottlenecks, machine downtime and wastage due to board damage.
Fernite knives have been carefully developed to solve these problems.
Combining long knife life with exact tooth pitch, Fernite knives can deliver significant year one savings in maintenance time alone.
Additional long-term savings are made due to scrap reduction, longer production runs and improved productivity.
EASY AND QUICK TO INSTALL
Using Fernite gypsum knives can save you precious time when changing and installing knives.
With each Fernite knife manufactured with an accurate and uniform tooth profile, there is no need to spend time checking for matching pairs before installation.
Fernite knives are clearly marked with dimensions, thicknesses and tooth pitches, making it quick and easy to select the correct knife.
