Self Locking Bottom Knives are designed for efficient knife positioning and quick slit-width adjustment in shear slitting systems. A hardened eccentric locking ring secures the knife to the shaft and allows convenient locking, unlocking, and repositioning.
The eccentric locking ring can be rotated to securely position the knife on the shaft. Correct locking direction during installation helps enable quick unlocking and subsequent adjustment, making these knives suitable for applications requiring frequent slit-width changes.
Self Locking Bottom Knives are suitable for precision slitting of plastic films, metal films, adhesive tapes, labels, tissue, textiles, paper, paperboard, rubber, laminates, and nonwoven materials.
Installed on the bottom knife shaft, these knives work with upper dished knives, pneumatic knife holders, and knife holders to form a reliable shear slitting system. WINGCHONG KNIFE can also manufacture matching knife components for precise system compatibility.

Abrasive Cutting Knives are industrial cutting tools specifically designed for cutting abrasive rolls such as sandpaper and abrasive cloth.
Dished knives are circular cutting tools used for shear-type slitting. Unlike completely flat “flat knives,” their blades feature a concave geometric shape (resembling a plate or dish), a design that enables them to generate specific lateral cutting forces during rotational shearing.
Adhesive materials: Self-adhesive labels, adhesive tape, various composite films (die-cutting can create a temporary seal along the cut edges).
Elastic/soft materials: Rubber, non-woven fabric (NWF), textiles, tissue paper.
Abrasive/hard materials: Materials such as sandpaper that can quickly wear down standard sharp blades.
