Carbide Inlay Bottom Bands

Made with pure virgin carbide inserts, Carbide Inlay Bottom Bands from Valley Grinding offer longer run times between blade change out, better cut quality, improved surface finish and less wear on the top slitter blades.

• Perfect balance of Cobalt and Tungsten in bottom bands result in blades that are safe to run at any speed while still maximizing the amount of time between sharpenings.
• By manufacturing bottom bands with internal tolerances tighter than actual machine OEM tolerances, a consistent nip point is guaranteed resulting in superior cut quality.
• Unique locking device safely secures carbide inlay ring to carrier metal, assuring rings will not come apart at any speed.
• Custom manufacturing processes provide customers with single or double cutting edges in whatever sizes are needed to match individual requirements.
• Superfinished cutting edges with a mirror finish reduce friction between bottom band and top slitter resulting in reduced blade wear and extended run times.
• Optional "Roll Saver" Carriers available to help protect roll. This feature also helps eliminate sheet marking and protects the bottom band from damage when top slitters jump their track.
