ECON03 granulator and shredding knife — M2 high-speed steel, 40 x 20 x 2.8 x 35D

The ECON03 is a granulator and shredding knife designed for ECON recycling and pelletising machines, engineered to deliver consistent cutting performance for a wide range of plastic waste and reprocessing tasks.

• M2 (1.3343 DMo5) high-speed steel construction
• Precision ground edges for consistent pellet size
• Compatible with ECON recycling and granulators
• Low dust generation and improved throughput

Consistent pellet quality through optimised cutting geometry

The ECON03 is manufactured from M2 high-speed steel (1.3343 DMo5), a material chosen for its balance of hardness and toughness. This composition supports stable cutting edges that preserve geometry under cyclic loads, resulting in consistent pellet size and fewer fines. For recycling and granulating processes, this translates into more uniform regranulate, reduced downstream filtration effort and improved process stability. The knife’s ground profile is designed to reduce friction and control chip formation, which helps maintain throughput without sacrificing cut quality.

Reduced downtime and longer maintenance intervals

Precision finishing and the inherent wear resistance of the steel minimise rapid edge degradation, allowing longer service intervals and fewer unscheduled stops. The accurate manufacturing tolerances ensure a secure fit in the knife holder, which reduces vibration and wear on adjacent components. Lower dust generation means less load on extraction and screening systems, contributing to a cleaner production environment and reduced maintenance on ancillary equipment. Taken together, these factors improve overall equipment effectiveness and support a more predictable maintenance schedule.

Direct fit for ECON systems and reliable supply chain backing

With dimensions 40 x 20 x 2.8 x 35D, the knife is configured for direct replacement in compatible ECON shredders, granulators and pelletisers, providing a straightforward swap without custom machining. The design focus on repeatable geometry ensures even contact pressure across the blade, preserving both cut quality and machine life. Metav’s quality filter in Emmerich underpins product reliability for industrial applications, combining workshop practicality with industrial supply security — an economical wear-part solution developed for continuous production. Our MetavCUT range offers a targeted alternative to original parts while maintaining fit and function.

FAQ

What material is used for this knife and why is it suitable?
The ECON03 is made from M2 high-speed steel (1.3343 DMo5), chosen for a balance of hardness and toughness that preserves cutting geometry under continuous use and supports consistent pellet quality.

Which machines is this knife compatible with?
This granulator and shredding knife is compatible with ECON recycling, shredding and pelletising machines and is supplied in a standard format for direct replacement.

What are the exact dimensions and how do they affect fit?
Dimensions are 40 x 20 x 2.8 x 35D; these measurements ensure accurate seating in the knife holder and maintain correct clearance for stable cutting and minimal vibration.

How does this knife influence dust generation and downstream processing?
The precision-ground edges of the ECON03 produce fewer fines, reducing dust generation and easing the load on extraction and screening systems, which benefits downstream processing and filtration.

Is the MetavCUT knife a direct alternative to original equipment parts?
MetavCUT knives like the ECON03 are engineered as economical, process-optimised wear parts that match form, fit and function for productive use while offering a cost-efficient alternative to some manufacturer-original components.
