Blades for the
Craftsman

by LUTZ BLADES

Special tool

in tough continuous operation

When it comes to blades that craftsmen use in their work, LUTZ BLADES is one of the market leaders. from the very beginning, we have two important aspects in mind : firstly, the needs of the professional craftsman. And on the other hand, the requirements of the tool dealer.

Whether for floor layers, painters or upholsterers, whether cutter knives, carpet knives, roofing knives or styrofoam knives - our blades and knives have been successfully listed in the trade for years as LUTZ BLADES or as other well-known private brands.

The wide range of materials

for our blades

Our product portfolio offers you blades in thicknesses between 0.06 - 3.0 mm and with final hardnesses between 40 - 85 HRc. You also have a wide choice in our material program:

  • Carbon steel
  • Rust-resistant, hardened steel
  • (HSS) High-performance High-speed Steel
  • Ceramic
  • Austenite
  • Bimetal
  • Carbide

The versatile coating program
for our blades

TiN (Titan-Nitrid)

Standard hard material with high wear resistance and relatively high coefficient of friction (against reference material steel approx. 0.4 to 0.7), usually gold-colored, safe application range up to approx. 300 °C.

TiC (Titan-Carbit)

Has lower wear resistance than TiN with significantly lower coefficient of friction (against reference material steel approx. 0.3 to 0.5), usually anthracite colored.

TiCN (Titan-Carbonit)

Intermediate coating material between the high wear resistance of TiN and the low coefficient of friction of TiC, relative position between TiN and TiC depending on the ratio of C and N, usually anthracite color.

TiAlN (Titan-Aluminium-Nitrid)

Has greater oxidation resistance than TiN with comparable coefficient of friction, usually anthracite blue.

ZrN (Zirkon-Nitrid)

With a wear resistance similar to TiN, but denser structure (morphology) than TiN and thus greater resistance to pitting under appropriate load, usually steel colored.

DLC (Diamond-like Carbon)

Has high wear resistance with low coefficient of friction (approx. 0.1 against reference material steel); susceptible to impact loads and high temperatures (between 100 and 300 °C depending on structure).

(PTFE) (Poly-Tetra-Fluor-Ethylen) – Teflon®

Teflon® non-stick coating (PTFE); due to the very low surface tension, practically no foreign bodies stick to the cutting edge, resistant to acids and alkalis; significantly reduced frictional resistance; the very low static friction allows jerk-free cutting (therefore very suitable for the medical sector); low wear resistance; not suitable for contact with sodium and at temperatures above 250 °C.

Color varnish

Applied over the entire surface, serves as a sorting aid for different material thicknesses and as corrosion protection.

Blueing / Blackening

Applied over the entire surface, light corrosion and starch protection, also serves as a distinguishing aid.

Customized quality
The LUTZ BLADES Rapid Prototyping

Do you need a blade that is tailored to your individual cutting process? Which, even if produced in small quantities, has a near-series quality? Our development department has the right answer to these questions: prototype production by LUTZ BLADES.

How you benefit

by LUTZ BLADES Rapid Prototyping:
  • Near-series initial samples
  • Maximum flexibility = customized blades
  • Smallest quantities possible
  • Efficient and accelerated product development
  • Development and optimization of the blade before series production

The Lutz BLADES Rapid Prototyping

is characterized by:
  • Cutting of the blade geometry by state-of-the-art machinery and CNC-based grinding of all radii
  • Automatic measurement and testing of the tightest tolerances in the process
  • Customized heat treatment and coating
