Circular Blades Are Important in Abrasive Industry

Written by Hyde | Jun 24, 2016 8:11:00 PM

If you’ve read our blog then you know a lot about circular blades, but the abrasive industry is probably another story.

That’s okay if you’ve never heard of abrasives.  Even those within the industry will admit that abrasives are not as popular as lasers, robotics, drones, or smart phones.  Even so, abrasives play a big part in our everyday world. 


Abrasive are used to grind, shape, and polish raw metal into finished works that can either be sold as a finished product or sold to be used in other products.

Sometimes, before the abrasive industry can do their thing, they need helping cutting. That’s where Hyde Industrial Blade Solutions comes in.

Hyde IBS makes metal blades that can cut large rolls of abrasive materials into necessary shapes or down to the necessary size.

For example, Hyde blades might be used to cut huge sheets of sand paper into smaller sheets of sand paper that sell at hardware and automotive supply stores.  Another example is using blades to cut down emery cloth or abrasive grinding belts. 

We don’t often think about what goes in to making sand paper, but when you do, you realize that something needs to cut it.  What cuts sandpaper are blades and knives made by Hyde Industrial Blade Solutions.

Hyde also makes tools that the abrasive industry can use as tool holders or tool bodies.  Abrasive are then applied to these tools to enable them to polish or grind other products.

All of the aforementioned processes need durable blades.  Without durable blades, your machines are shutting down.  When your machines shut down, your business loses money.
