Crusher Blades

When you invest in a crusher cutting set, wear life and reliability matter. YISHI manufactures industrial crusher blades for recycling and size reduction—delivering stable performance and lower total cost.

Durable, wear-resistant crusher blades

Crusher Blades We Manufacture

Crusher blades for high-impact, abrasive loads—steel, heat treatment, and edge geometry matched to your feedstock to reduce chipping, slow wear, and extend blade life.

Crusher Blade Types by Machine & Cutting Task

Choosing the right knife type starts with your equipment design and reduction goal. Below are common configurations we support.

  • Granulator Blades
    Built for higher RPM and repeatable regrind output. Ideal when edge stability, tight clearance, and uniform particle size are priorities.
  • Plastic Crusher Blades
    Designed for tougher plastics and mixed loads that accelerate wear. Optimized geometry and tool-steel options help stabilize cutting and extend service life.
  • Rasper / Stator / Fixed Knives
    Made for high-shock, coarse reduction conditions where rigidity matters most. Thicker sections and controlled heat treatment improve toughness and uptime.

Which Crusher Blade Material Fits Your Feedstock

Material and heat treatment are the two biggest factors behind edge life, chipping resistance, and stable cutting performance. We commonly supply D2, SKD11, and equivalent tool steels—selected to match your feedstock and duty cycle.

Typical material options

  • SKD11 (JIS): balanced wear + toughness for mixed plastics and stable daily production. (Typical 58–62 HRC)
  • D2 (AISI): higher wear resistance for hard plastics or more abrasive regrind. (Typical 56–60 HRC)
  • Equivalent tool steels: tuned to your throughput, contamination risk, and maintenance plan. (Hardness customized)

How to Select the Right Crusher Knife

Selecting the optimum cutting set typically comes down to five criteria:

  • Feedstock — soft vs rigid vs abrasive; contamination risk (metal, sand, fillers)
  • Output requirement — target particle size and uniformity; throughput expectations
  • Machine compatibility — rotor design, shaft size, RPM, rotation direction, mounting pattern
  • Edge strategy — sharpness vs durability; clearance and counter-knife pairing
  • Lifecycle planning — reversible edges, regrind schedule, spare set strategy

Frequently Asked Questions

Do you have any questions about our products and how to use them? We have compiled the most frequently asked questions and answered them. If your question is not listed here, please contact us.

  • What is the difference between a crusher blade and a shredder blade?

    A crusher cutting set typically targets controlled size reduction (often with rotor + counter knife pairing) and aims for consistent output. Shredder knives often handle higher shock loads and more aggressive tearing depending on machine design. Your machine type and reduction goal determine the best configuration.

  • Which material is best for plastic crusher blades?

    D2 and SKD11 are common choices. D2 tends to offer higher wear resistance for harder or more abrasive plastics, while SKD11 often provides a balanced wear/toughness profile for mixed plastics and stable daily production. Final selection depends on contamination level and duty cycle.

  • Can you manufacture custom sizes and mounting patterns?

    Yes. We support custom dimensions, hole patterns, slots, countersinks, keyways, and other mounting features. Provide a drawing or sample for review.

  • Do you offer reversible designs or regrind support?

    We can supply reversible edge designs where suitable, and we can advise on regrind strategy and maintenance intervals based on your feedstock and throughput target.

  • What information do you need for a fast quotation?

    Feedstock type, machine model, knife dimensions (or drawing), quantity, steel preference (if any), and the current cutting issue you want to solve.
