cracked chipper blades!!!!!!!!!!

Never seen the point in paying over the odds for exactly the same quality.

 

What's your knowledge of the quality control of the 2 makes then?

[Hodge]

I buy mine from spectrum plant and are genuine and a good price

 

 

That's because they are the real thing, I use the same.

[Mountain man]

Timberwolf make there own blades and use a secret process that is different to any other company. The blades from that batch then are tested and if not up to standard they are rejected. This is what I have been told by Timberwolf themselves.

 

Been wanting to use this one for a while.....

I thought just about most stuff made and sold in this country is all made to British standards anyway! Like budget tyres!

[White Noise]

Got to disagree there Hodge, the aftermarket ones I buy (I won't mention their name) are made from the same udderholm steel as the originals.

I always buy aftermarket, have done for many years, never a single problem.

 

Have to agree with you on this one

Do TW have their own steel mill?

[Hodge]

I don't know how Jensen, greenmech or forst make there blades but I'm sure they will be made to a high spec and standard. Maybe aftermarket blades are made the same but if you use genuine parts and there is a problem and you go back to the manufacturer with the product you have a better case if using genuine parts then non genuine.

Overtightening can and will cause premature failure . Just saying Saturn Knives have done me proud for many a year .

Why not give them a call and ask them? I'm just putting across what was told to me but Timberwolf. I wouldn't think they would tell porkys.

I don't know as I don't buy them,wether they have or not is irrelevant, how do you know non gen is the same? Simple answer is you don't.
