About Our Pelletizer Knife (ST-017) & Crusher Blades

The pelletizer knife (model ST-017) is a precision cutting blade designed for plastic recycling and size reduction machinery. As a critical component of granulators, crushers, and pelletizing systems, these knives work in tandem with rotor blades to efficiently process plastic scrap, rubber products, and recyclable materials. Our standard L129xW35mm x T5mm knives are engineered to deliver consistent cuts, producing uniform pellets or flakes ideal for downstream recycling processes, material recovery, or direct reuse.

Premium Material & Construction

Our pelletizer knives are manufactured from high-precision tool steels including D2, SKD11, M2, ASP, and High-Speed Steel (HSS). These materials are selected for their superior edge retention, wear resistance, and toughness. Each blade undergoes specialized heat treatment to achieve an optimal hardness of 56-63 HRC, providing the perfect balance between sharpness and durability for cutting various plastics and rubber. The blades feature a polished surface finish and precise roundness geometry, ensuring smooth operation, minimal friction, and consistent cutting performance in high-speed granulation.

Key Features & Operational Benefits

Designed for longevity in demanding recycling environments, our pelletizer knives offer significant operational advantages. The primary key benefits are extended wear life and precision cutting. The high hardness (HRC 56-63) ensures excellent resistance to abrasion from reinforced plastics and rubber compounds. The polished surface reduces material buildup and drag, while the precise geometry ensures clean, uniform cuts. This translates directly into reduced downtime for blade changes, consistent pellet/flake quality, and higher overall equipment efficiency (OEE), maximizing your plastic recycling operation's productivity.

Application Industries & Materials

These versatile knives are specifically engineered for the plastic recycling industry and related size-reduction applications. They excel in processing post-consumer plastics (PET, HDPE, PP, PVC), plastic film, rigid plastic containers, engineering plastics, and rubber products. Industries that heavily rely on these precision knives include plastic recycling facilities, plastic pelletizing plants, synthetic fiber production, rubber reclaiming operations, and waste management companies. Whether installed in a central granulator for bulk reduction or a precision pelletizer for uniform flake production, our ST-017 knives deliver reliable performance essential for efficient material recovery and reprocessing.

Customization & Comprehensive Quality Assurance

We specialize in providing fully customized OEM and ODM blade solutions. While we offer the standard ST-017 model, all specifications—including dimensions, edge geometry, material grade, and hardness—can be tailored to fit your specific granulator or crusher model. Our manufacturing processes are certified to ISO9001:2008 standards, ensuring consistent quality. We can provide detailed material certifications and performance data upon request. Our commitment to precision and durability means you receive a high-performance cutting tool engineered for your specific plastic or rubber processing application, backed by our expertise in tool steel manufacturing.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Find expert answers to common questions about Pelletizer Knives and Crusher Blades for plastic and rubber recycling.

Pelletizer knives (like our ST-017 model) are precision cutting tools designed for granulators and pelletizing systems in the plastic recycling industry. They typically have a straight edge or specific geometry to produce uniform pellets or flakes. They operate at high speeds against a bed knife. Standard shredder blades are heavier, thicker tools used in primary shredders to break down large, bulky items. They focus on high torque and impact resistance. Pelletizer knives prioritize a clean, precise cut for consistent regrind size, while shredder blades prioritize brute force reduction.
The hardness range of 56-63 HRC (Rockwell C) provides the ideal balance for plastic and rubber cutting. Hardness below 56 HRC leads to rapid edge dulling and deformation from abrasive fillers (like glass fibers or minerals). Hardness above 63 HRC increases the risk of chipping or micro-fractures, especially when encountering contaminants or hard feedstocks. Within this range, the pelletizer knife maintains a sharp edge longer, resists wear from continuous cutting of plastic polymers, and retains enough toughness to withstand minor impacts. This extends blade life and ensures consistent granulation quality.
Key indicators for pelletizer knife maintenance include: 1) Increased Fines/Dust: Production of excessive fine particles instead of uniform flakes. 2) Reduced Throughput: The machine takes longer to process the same amount of material. 3) Higher Energy Consumption: Increased amperage on the motor. 4) Irregular Cut Size: Inconsistent flake or pellet dimensions. 5) Visible Edge Damage: Nicks, rounding, or dull spots on the blade edge. 6) Overheating: The granulator chamber gets hotter than usual. Regular inspection is recommended. For standard plastic recycling, sharpening might be needed every 40-120 operating hours, depending on material abrasiveness.
Yes, through our comprehensive OEM and ODM services, we can manufacture custom pelletizer knives and crusher blades for virtually any brand or model of granulator, pelletizer, or crusher. We can work from your technical drawings, CAD files, OEM part numbers, or even a sample blade. We replicate all critical dimensions (length, width, thickness), mounting hole patterns, edge angles, and material specifications. This ensures a perfect fit and optimal performance in your machine, often at a more competitive price than the original equipment manufacturer. Our expertise in high precision tool steel allows us to match or exceed original specifications.
D2 tool steel offers excellent wear resistance and high compressive strength, making it ideal for processing abrasive plastics (filled or reinforced) and for long production runs. It holds an edge well but can be less tough than some grades. M2 High-Speed Steel (HSS) provides a better balance of toughness and wear resistance, with good red-hardness (maintains hardness at elevated temperatures). It's suitable for general-purpose plastic granulation. Premium HSS or ASP powders offer the highest level of wear resistance and edge retention for the most demanding applications. The choice depends on your specific material (e.g., glass-filled nylon vs. clean PET) and operational priorities (maximizing life vs. impact resistance).
For an order of 50 pieces of ST-017 pelletizer knives (or an equivalent custom variant), which falls within our 1-100 pieces standard production range, the lead time is 10 days from order confirmation and deposit receipt. This efficient timeline is possible due to our standardized processes for these high-volume tool steel components, including material stock, CNC machining, heat treatment, precision grinding, and polishing. For orders exceeding 100 pieces, we can negotiate a custom production schedule that may offer further efficiencies. This fast turnaround helps minimize your plastic recycling equipment downtime.
The polished surface on a granulator or pelletizer knife provides several key benefits for plastic recycling: 1) Reduced Friction: A smooth surface creates less drag against the plastic material, lowering energy consumption and heat generation. 2) Improved Material Flow: Molten or soft plastics are less likely to stick or build up on the blade face. 3) Cleaner Cut: A polished edge reduces tearing and produces a sharper, more defined cut on the plastic flake. 4) Easier Cleaning: Residue is less likely to adhere, making blade cleaning between material changes quicker. 5) Corrosion Resistance: A polished surface provides fewer microscopic sites for moisture attack, important in humid environments.
Yes, our ST-017 pelletizer knives and similar crusher blades are engineered to handle both thermoplastics and rubber products effectively. For thermoplastics (PET, PE, PP, etc.), the hard, sharp edge provides a clean shear cut. For rubber products (tires, seals, mats), the blade's toughness and wear resistance handle the material's elasticity and potential abrasiveness. However, for dedicated, high-volume rubber granulation, we might recommend a slightly different edge geometry or material grade (prioritizing toughness) to optimize performance and life. We can advise on the best configuration for your mixed or specific material stream in the recycling industry.
