Edging
Tool King’s “edge-ucation”
Tool King is very unique in its abilities to produce a wide variety of coil edge shapes, and especially across so broad of a gauge range. Edging/skiving offers a number of valuable benefits …
- faster and easier die feed-thru, enhancing productivity
- increased formability, especially for hard steels
- tighter width tolerances (+/- .001”)
- helps prevent edge cracks
- extended cycle-life of steel spring applications
- improved customer safety and reduced product liability exposure
- increased worker safety; decreased medical and worker compensation claims
No./Name | Image | Description |
| #1 Round Edge* | full round, R = ½ t | |
| #1 Square Edge* | square edge, very accurate width, all slitter break removed | |
| #2 Mill Edge* | edge (unprocessed) as normal mill-rolled, some burr | |
| #3 Slit Edge* | | standard slit edge – minimal burr |
| #4 Rounded Edge* | | a.k.a. safety edge, semi-round corners (less radius than #1 Round) |
| #5 Deburred Edge* | | a.k.a. “skived” – all burr removed; almost-square profile |
| #6 Edge* | | semi-square (more radius than #1 Square) |
| #7 Round/Square Edge** | 1 side #1 round; 1 side #1 square (Tool King custom) | |
| #8 Bevel Edge** | | tapered both sides (Tool King custom) |
| #9 Custom*** | | your custom-engineered/proprietary profiles |
Notes:
* consistent with ASTM A505-00 (2005)
