2 metre tray knife strip to make your Tray Sealing Knives
Only precision-ground, expertly manufactured tray sealing knife strip delivers the efficiency and accuracy required for modern food packaging operations.
Tray Knife Strips – Flat Blanks for Tray Sealing Systems
We manufacture tray knife strips in flat, unformed (unbent) condition, designed for use in tray sealing and packaging machinery applications. These strips are supplied as precision-cut blanks that can be further processed, bent, and formed into the required tray knife shape by the end user or downstream fabricator.
Our tray knife strips provide a reliable starting material for manufacturers who require consistent quality, dimensional accuracy, and flexibility in forming their own tray knife profiles.
To firmly seal and accurately cut away the excess, tray knives must be super sharp. At Fernite, we offer only sharp and durable pre-cut strips for tray knives that are essential for maintaining food safety standards:
- Precision engineering – essential for efficiency and waste reduction
- 420 stainless steel – the premium material choice
- Strength, hardness, and corrosion resistance
- Performance under daily use and high-temperature conditions
- All our tray sealing knives have exceptionally sharp tooth configurations.
Tray knife strip – dramatically reducing wastage during the forming process
Fernite’s advanced technology enables us to manufacture a two-meter tray form knife strip while maintaining the precision and accuracy of the tooth profile.
By switching to 2 metre lengths, our customers are making significant savings by forming more knives from each length and reducing loading times.
What is a Tray Knife Strip?
A tray knife strip is a pre-cut, flat metal component used as the base material for producing tray sealing knives. Unlike finished tray knives, our strips are:
- ▸Supplied flat and unformed
- ▸Not pre-bent into any specific knife profile
- ▸Intended for secondary processing and shaping
- ▸Used as a blank or raw component in tray knife production
These strips are commonly used by manufacturers, fabricators, and equipment suppliers who assemble or customize tray knife systems.
Our strip knives are suitable for former bending and forming
Unlike finished tray knives, our products are delivered as straight, flat strips. This allows customers to:
- Form the knife into its required shape
- Adapt the component to specific machine configurations
- Maintain control over final geometry and tolerances
- Integrate into proprietary manufacturing processes
Note: These strips require additional forming before use as a functional tray knife.
