KSX chain sharpener + 4x sharpening pins KS5.5
KSX chain sharpener now with 2 Ah battery!
The KSX chain sharpener is the latest development in chain sharpening technology:
Our goal was to develop a lightweight and portable battery-powered chain sharpener that can be used in all situations and by all users.
Milling in progress!
With the KSX chain sharpener, the saw tooth is milled rather than filed or ground.
This results in a very sharp cutting edge and a polished tooth surface. The amount of material removed can be easily adjusted by varying the contact pressure on the tooth. The angle stop/height stop makes it easy to maintain all angles on the tooth.
Our in-house developed sharpening pin is of the highest quality, ensuring a long service life. There are no changes in diameter, as is the case, for example, with conventional grinding pins.
Advantages of the KSX chain sharpener:
- lightweight and portable
- easy to use and simple to learn the sharpening technique
- Angle stop for a consistent sharpening angle
- Height stop for consistent roof and rafter angles
- Long service life of Forstreich KS sharpening pins
- Suitable for all standard saw chains (Ø4.0 mm / Ø4.5 mm / Ø4.8 mm / Ø5.2 mm / Ø5.5 mm)
- The chain can be sharpened on the guide bar
