When the time comes to CHOOSE YOUR BLADES, several criteria must be taken into consideration. Beyond the type of steel and its hardness, the product must be selected to suit the application.
 
Hewitt Equipment Limited offers only the best in the industry… the Cat DH-2 blades, available in different lengths, widths and thicknesses. 
 
Due to a combination of moderate carbon steel content and a thorough tempering procedure, Cat DH-2 blades offer increased durability and resistance when dealing with bending, breakage and impact.

Benefits:

• Less blade wear
• Reduced breakage
• Less downtime
• Lower labour and hardware costs
  

Blade Types
Curved blades	Generally thinner than flat blades Better penetration Uses: construction, final levelling
Flat blades	More cost-effective More wear material (less contact surface) Uses: maintenance, trail openings (larger contact surface)
Serrated blades	Uses: penetration of packed or frozen material, scraping and  spreading of gravel for road maintenance

Generally, broader blades get more wear material at a lower cost than the narrower blades.
