Short Formed Mixer Knife

Each knife is meticulously crafted in our Iowa plant using a high-carbon base material, then coated with a heavy layer of tungsten carbide, fused directly onto the blade. This process ensures that the knife maintains a sharp edge throughout its lifespan, as the blade self-sharpens while in use. Additionally, the knife is heat-treated to provide maximum durability and longevity.  This knife is designed for cutting and mixing livestock rations, making it an essential tool for creating TMR (Total Mixed Ration), specifically for use in Triolet®, Kongskilde®, and Tatoma® mixers. When installed, the knife is bolted to the screw of the mixer wagon, enabling it to cut rations and thoroughly mix the feed for your livestock. This knife is used in the top 2 or 3 positions in the auger.

Installation: 

• The K44100 Knife installs easily using factory settings, with no special tools required. Simply bolt it to the screw of the mixer wagon.
• Mounting hardware is available, with options for K3814TCBK 
• Kooima Ag® is one of the very few companies that continuously tests and seeks ways to improve the wear resistance and edge retention of our knives. As the manufacturer of these products in our Iowa plant, we are able to make real-time adjustments based on ongoing testing. With a high density of dairies and feedlots nearby, we conduct year-round testing in a wide variety of rations to ensure the best performance for all our products. 

When to Replace the Knife: 

• Replace the knife when the edge starts to get dull and is no longer able to cut efficiently.
• Another indicator to replace the knife is when it takes 1.5 times your normal mixing time to complete the job. Increased mixing time is a sign that the knife is no longer performing optimally and may need replacement. 

Key Features & Benefits: 

• Self-Sharpening Technology: Thanks to the tungsten carbide coating, the blade retains its sharp edge throughout the life of the knife, reducing the frequency of replacements and improving mixing efficiency. 
• Durable & Heat-Treated: Each knife is heat-treated to further increase its strength and durability, ensuring that it withstands the demanding conditions of regular use in mixer wagons.
