At Bartz, we understand that cutting tools need to deliver not only performance but also reliability and durability, even in the most demanding conditions. That’s why our cutting knives, rippers, and scrapers are designed and manufactured with the latest technology, ensuring superior performance in every excavation project.
Cutting Knives: The Versatility You Need
Bartz cutting knives are renowned for their ability to successfully tackle the excavation of sedimentary and metamorphic rocks up to 80 MPa. But it’s not just about penetration—our cutting tools are optimized to perform in highly abrasive terrains, thanks to our advanced tungsten carbide (WC) inserts, carefully selected and positioned to maximize wear resistance.
What truly sets our picks apart is our brazing process in a controlled atmosphere furnace, ensuring a strong and uniform bond between the tungsten carbide and the tool’s base. This prevents any risk of detachment under extreme working conditions. This level of quality in bonding allows our customers to operate with complete confidence, even in the harshest environments.
Coatings Tailored to Your Needs
- Multilayer chrome carbide (60-63 HRC): Perfect for moderately abrasive terrains.
- Tungsten carbide (over 65 HRC): Ideal for high-abrasion conditions.
- Special tungsten carbide alloys (up to 2000 HV): The ultimate solution for the most extreme applications.
Rippers and Scrapers: Extreme Performance in Excavation
Our rippers and scrapers, made from top-grade alloy steels, are built to withstand the toughest challenges in material extraction and rock breaking. Like our picks, these tools benefit from tungsten carbide inserts bonded using brazing in a controlled atmosphere furnace, providing unmatched durability and extreme wear resistance.
