Drilling with core barrels, material fines compact into the seating area of the tooth and holder interface, causing galling. Parallel seating design makes tooth replacement difficult and requires a special hydraulic removal tool. Kennametal’s new KF Series’ tapered seating design provides a strong seating area and easy removal — just a small hit and the tooth comes out easily. Safety and serviceability improve while reducing downtime changing teeth. Visit www.kennametal.com.
