KVX System for EXCAVATORS Although best known in the mid-range excavator sizes (12-80 tones), the KVX excavator system is available for machines from 0,5 to 300 tons.

6 KVX System for EXCAVATORS Although best known in the mid-range excavator sizes (12-80 tones), the KVX excavator system is available for machines from 0,5 to 300 tons. Standard elements are widely used, but we tailor-make solutions when required. Any machine, from mini-excavators to giants, can be equipped with our wearresistant components. Teeth from M-16 to M-90 system size: PENETRATION HD: The optimal choice when a balance of extended life and penetration is required. 1-bolt Tooth System One bolt is all it takes. This ingenious and field proven system uses just one bolt to attach the wearpart to to the cutting edge, and fits all brands. Simply place the teeth on the four dowels in the cutting edge and insert the bolt. A quick and simple attachment that saves you time while also providing extreme lateral impact resistance. STANDARD: Our most popular tooth a multi-purpose model. STONE TOOTH HD: Designed for tough and abrasive asive conditions. Suited for applications where penetration is not a high priority but extreme life is required. SUPER PENETRATION / RIPPER HD / TIGER HD: Provides optimal penetration with high structural strength and moderate wear life. THE LIMESTONE TOOTH: Designed specially for limestone applications, and uses a different metallurgy so as to combat heat cracking due to friction. PENETRATION: Provides good penetration and easy digging. STONE TOOTH: For tough digging conditions, or as a corner tooth in combination with other teeth. RIPPER: This heavy-duty, versatile tooth is excellent for rock ripping. M-16: An excellent choice for mini escavators. Combined with a planner plate, this is a unique universal solution. KVX advantages for UTILITY MACHINES The trouble-free and safe solution for Utility machines The KVX planer plate can be fitted ted to excavators of all sizes. KVX offers tooth systems for excavators of all sizes. For Utility machine buckets, we offer a G.E.T. system that makes your mini-excavator, backhoe, skidsteer or loader stand out from the competition. The KVX teeth are bolted directly to the bucket lip. For mini-excavators this is especially good news, as you are able to mount or change the teeth using hand spanners only. What s more, KVX can also supply the bucket Lip itself, enhancing the strength and life of the bucket.

World-renowned Sagitta steel offers an unrivalled balance of hardness and toughness. Sagitta s complex blend of alloying elements, and a specialised hardening process, result in consistent material characteristics throughout throughhardened to the core! KVX products are rolled, forged or cast. The technology is chosen to optimize performance of each individual product. 4 A bolt-on system that really lasts KVX conical-neck, high performance bolts are tightly torqued into a threaded plate. They have a grip like steel and withstand the toughest terrain. Advantages are: 1. Significantly Longer Bucket Lip Life (~500HB vs 250~400HB for most conventional Lips) 2. Stronger Bucket (toughness & tensile strength) 2 3. Far Less Maintenance & Downtime 4. Little Or No Lip Protection Required 5. Almost Zero Welding Maintenance 6. Truly Smooth Floor Design Inside & out (Optimal Penetration & Productivity) Reversible, self-sharpening teeth and wear plates (certain applications) When the teeth and wear plates have worn out on one side, you just turn them around and start on life number two! Brinell Sagitta steel At KVX we harden our steel after processing it. With 130 years of experience we have achieved the optimal combination of hardness and toughness. Greater durability and greater life! 3 Slim, high penetration design Typical adapter system Typical HB New wear parts Worn out wear parts KVX system KVX 500 HB The KVX system starts out slimmer than conventional GET systems and it s advantage improves even further as thecomponents wear. KVX gets sharper with wear! 6 Unique Adapterless Solutions! Adapter repairs and poor tooth retention can constitute a significant ongoing expense, not to mention the damage caused to adapters or fixed plant when a tooth is lost. The KVX system completely eliminates these adapters and associated welding! The specially hardened teeth have no problems working in the toughest of conditions.
