Stainless steel can use for various purposes, ranging from martensitic type, which features high hardness, to austenitic type, which has high corrosion resistance.
■JIS Steel Grade (and equivalents)
SUS420,SUS304,SUS316
Hardness: approx. Hs65 ~ 30
Blade made by Phosphor bronze is characterized by the lowest friction among metallic types and avoids harming the roll of your product.
This material is also characterized with its high abrasion resistance.
■JIS Steel Grade (and equivalents)
PBP-3EH
Hardness: approx. Hs29
This specialized steel proves both high delicacy and hardness in blade, bluing high quality carbon steel.
The blade is finely sharp to bring high Doctoring effect.

Hardness: approx. Hs65
Ultra High Molecular Weight Polyethylene (UHMWPE) is elaborated in its high resistance to abrasion further exclusively for our blade development.
This type can go well with many kinds of rubber rolls including synthetic rubber and polyurethane rubber.
There are others, integrated with additives to elaborate its abrasion resistance, antistatic element, are also available.
Commercial name : UHMW-PE
Fiber Reinforced Plastics (FRP) blade is of epoxy resin in nature and laminated with glass fiber.
This type is versatile, adopting the grade which represents both high strength and abrasion resistance.
There are other options available, with additive to elaborate its thermostability, and with abrasives for more polished surface.
Commercial name: Glass Epoxy
Fiber blade laminated by carbon fiber instead of glass fiber.
This brings excellent Doctoring effect in various circumstances, utilizing strengths of fiber blade.
The content of carbon fiber in the blade can be customized between 25 ~ 100%.
Commercial name: Carbon Composite
Thanks to development in blade materials, we can offer more materials than listed here. Please consult us for details.
