Machine Slideways and Guides
Fernite slideways are accurately machined on a long bed CNC machining centre, and after carefully controlled heat treatment on our own premises are precision ground in matched sets to the standards of accuracy and surface finish essential for the many different and demanding applications.

Shear, Sheeter and Granulator Blades
Fernite blades are manufactured in quality tool steels selected and tempered to meet the specific application, wear or shock resistance, cold or hot shearing. Illustrated are blades with mechanically secured tungsten carbide inserts which are used to cut silicon iron sheet and strip.

Shims, Leaf Springs, and Special Feeler Guages
Fernite special products are manufactured from steel strip employing laser cutting or precision presswork. Our associated stockholding operation holds an extensive range of sizes and qualities which, combined with our manufacturing facilities, enable us to offer a prompt and competitive service.

Chipper Knives
Fernite blades are made exclusively from "Chipper Steel", a steel type developed for the heavy duty application of producing wood chips from primary timber.

Rotary Blades
We make rotary cutters for a diverse range of applications in materials specially selected for optimum performance. For example metal slitting and cut-off blades for wire braided hydraulic hose.
