Kondex Corporation products

 Kondex Straw Claw chopper blades deliver the ultimate value in residue management and product performance. Our patented, self-serrating design uses a laser cladding additive on a through-hardened blade to control product wear and maintain blade sharpness longer. Controlled wear results in less chipping and blade damage, which in turn helps better maintain rotor balance and minimize maintenance.

Since the late 1990s, when our team was heavily involved in setting the standards for disc mower knife (DMK) manufacturing and testing, Kondex has been leading the way in making DMKs. Because these knives spin at high rates of speed and have the potential to encounter obstacles during use, safety is of the utmost importance. Beyond safety, the performance of these knives is what sets our DMKs above the rest.

Kondex bedknives are used on commercial reel mowers around the world! We pay close attention to the quality of these blades, as it ties directly to overall equipment performance. Our bedknives start with selection of a premium alloy steel. We then combine our heat treatment and precision machining expertise to design a blade that can withstand the natural abrasiveness of cutting yet absorb damaging impact from rocks or other hard objects. By maximizing blade life, Kondex gives its customers an edge! Beyond offering a sharp blade, Kondex bedknives are also straightened to deliver zero deflections for an even cut from end to end. Our manufacturing team can accommodate varying blade lengths as well as varying mount patterns and designs. Bedknives are manufactured to customer tolerances, ISO quality assurance requirements, and our own stringent safety and quality specifications.

You have unique product goals, which is why we offer a variety of heat treatment options. After choosing the right raw material for your application, we may then apply different heat treat processes to improve the durability and performance of the metals we employ. Heat treatment ensures that both the mechanical and physical properties are optimized for your application and that the hardness meets your product design requirements.
