Metal or construction industries that work constantly with sharp or abrasive loads need the best protection to ensure the safety and profitability of their equipment.

In addition to loads with rectangular edges, there are goods with deviating shapes. These include loads with protruding edges and with sharp or jagged outer contours, such as cogwheels, turbi-ne blades etc. These edges cannot be determined by the general rule.

In order to assess the sharp edge, „tools“ are required.
The following tools can be used to determine radii:
