CoorsTek Ceramic Stripper Tooling features exceptional wear resistance, significantly outperforming carbide alternatives in terms of service life. The ceramic fingers are designed for regrinding, which allows for extended usability. Their smoother surfaces and lower friction provide a gentle touch that prevents marking on can bodies. Additionally, these tooling components require minimal maintenance, as any aluminum buildup can be easily removed using a mild caustic solution or light diamond polishing. This product is suitable for engineers seeking durable and low-maintenance tooling solutions in can manufacturing applications.
CoorsTek ceramic fingers have exceptional wear resistance, offering superior life as compared to carbides. The ceramic fingers can be reground, further extending the service life. Smoother surfaces and lower friction provide a “velvet touch” that will not mark can bodies. Ceramic fingers are also low maintenance – any aluminum build up can be removed with a mild caustic or light diamond polishing.
The leading manufacturer of ceramic can tooling materials, CoorsTek is internationally recognized as a leader in the development and use of ceramic technology. In fact, CoorsTek and Coors Brewing jointly invented the two-piece aluminum beverage can in 1959. Manufactured in state-of-the-art facilities, our advanced ceramic canning tool components increase yields, improve quality, and extend machine life in can making plants worldwide.
