Taper Tip

Key Knife developed Taper Tip, the UNconventional knife, for mills that prefer to use traditional knife solutions that can be reground several times.   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.   ​(PDF Brochure Download)
Advantage

Lower 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.
