FORGING
Our manufacturing starts by heating raw metal to over 1,000deg and shape it between two dies on forging hammer by impact force.
This Forging process provides desired shape and also benefits of aligning the grain flow to obtain hardness & strength.
HEAT TREATMENT
After forging and some machining, pliers enter heat treatment processes. During heating & cooling processes within this stage, metal properties improve or change on strength, hardness, ductility, elasticity or wear resistance etc.
Our pliers are heated and cooled under tight controls and get extra induction hardening on cutting area to obtain ideal balance of these properties on its each part for superior durability.
SHARPENING
Heat Treated pliers in best condition are polished and assembled to proceed to sharpening, which is the most important process determining its cutting performance.
Our pliers are sharpened piece by piece by experienced artisan's hand-work. It's adjusted even slight deformation caused on heat treatment process and pliers obtain best cutting performance with optimal edge thickness and angle for each purpose.
