Description
Stainless steel sickle blade complete with bearing and bayonet is a specialised cutting knife for standard grinding containers, stainless-steel grinding containers and Eastman Tritan copolyester containers of the PULVERISETTE 11. The sickle geometry in stainless steel is particularly suited to the comminution of brittle, hard samples in laboratory cutting-mill applications. Delivered complete with bearing and bayonet fitting, the assembly is ready for installation and exchange on compatible P-11 grinding vessels. Further knife variants are available on request for other sample requirements. Supplied as one piece with a net weight of 0,23 kg, this accessory supports efficient sample reduction where hard or brittle materials must be processed to a homogeneous state prior to analysis. The component from manufacturer Fritsch is intended for laboratories operating the PULVERISETTE 11 that need a robust sickle blade rather than the standard multi-blade knife. Typical use is in analytical, materials and quality-control environments focused on controlled grinding of demanding solid samples in cutting mills.

Questions about sickle knife made of stainless steel
What is this article?
sickle knife made of stainless steel is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Fritsch for laboratory use. It sits in Mills, grinders & homogenisers, inside Test sieves & mills, in Lab instruments.
A mill, grinder or homogeniser reduces particle size or breaks a tissue before an extraction. The rotor and the sieve insert decide the result. A knife mill and a bead mill are different machines. The sample has to tolerate the heat the motor puts into it.
A test sieve sorts particles by whether they pass an opening. Wire mesh and perforated plate are two ways of making that opening, and the nominal size is not a suggestion. A sieve shaker repeats the motion so the result does not depend on how hard someone shook by hand. A mill or grinder makes the particles smaller before they are sieved. The certificate of the sieve, and the opening size, are what an audit asks for. Measurement practice around mass and dimension sits with the BIPM, EURAMET and BELAC.
Which category should I open next?
The category is Test sieves & mills. The sub-category is Mills, grinders & homogenisers. The catalogue is Lab instruments.
Shelves beside this one are Test sieves (wire mesh), Test sieves (perforated plate), Sieve shakers and Sieve accessories (lids, pans, rings).
