Granulator knife / Shredder blade 40.6 x 32.4 x 3.6 mm — M2 (1.3343 DMo5) by MetavCUT

A granulator knife designed for GALA recycling, shredding and pelletising systems to deliver uniform cuts and dependable wear performance in continuous industrial operation.

• Precision-ground M2 tool steel for long life
• Exact dimensions 40.6 x 32.4 x 3.6 mm
• Engineered for GALA shredders and granulators
• Low-dust, consistent pellet and granulate quality

Improved pellet quality through precise cutting

The blade is made from M2 (1.3343 DMo5) high-speed tool steel, heat-treated and ground to tight tolerances to ensure a stable cutting edge over extended runs. This precision reduces fines and irregular fragments, resulting in consistent pellet quality that enhances downstream processing and reduces rework. For operators of shredders and granulators, a reliably sharp wear part means less sieving and lower reject rates, translating into measurable process efficiency gains.

Designed for quick replacement and steady uptime

With exact 40.6 x 32.4 x 3.6 mm dimensions, the knife is manufactured for a proper fit in GALA machines, simplifying installation and aligning with existing blade carriers. The correct fit reduces vibration and uneven wear, which preserves blade geometry and prolongs service intervals. By lowering the frequency of interventions, the component supports continuous production and helps maintain planned output without unexpected stoppages.

Industrial wear resistance for demanding applications

As a dedicated wear part for recycling plants, the component performs reliably on materials such as films, pipes, sprues and general plastic waste in both shredding and pelletising stages. The material choice delivers a balance of hardness and toughness suitable for repeated impact and abrasive conditions. Clear separation between a granulator knife (cuts molten strands or extrudate into pellets) and a shredder blade (reduces waste to feed size) helps to match the tool to the required application and optimise tool life.

FAQ

What materials can this knife process?
The granulator knife is intended for plastic waste streams commonly handled in recycling plants; as a wear part it is suitable for shredding and granulating films, pipes, sprues and similar polymer materials within GALA systems.

How does the M2 (1.3343 DMo5) material affect service life?
M2 (1.3343 DMo5) provides a high-speed tool steel composition that balances hardness and toughness, giving the blade a long service life under abrasive and impact conditions typical in granulating and shredding operations.

Is this blade a direct replacement for GALA originals?
The component is engineered to the stated 40.6 x 32.4 x 3.6 mm dimensions for compatibility with GALA recycling and pelletising machines; MetavCUT wear parts are designed as process-optimised alternatives for reliable fit and function.

How does blade geometry influence dust and fines?
Sharp, precisely ground cutting edges produce cleaner shearing of polymers, which reduces dust and fine particles during granulation, improving material quality for reprocessing and lowering post-processing requirements.

What does regular maintenance of these knives involve?
Maintenance typically includes periodic inspection of edge condition, checking for uneven wear, and replacement when tolerances or cutting quality decline; using correctly sized replacement blades helps sustain machine performance.
