GEM replacement tips are made from premium hard
plate with a unique hard metal composition, the material is not heat treated. Other bar tips use heat
treated plate with the edges separately heat treated to make the
edges of the tip harder. By using metal that is hard by composition
and the same hardness throughout, we are able to eliminate chipping
and prevent cracking. This uniform metal composition allows the
tips to also have a high degree of spring back and bend force
resistance.
The tips are held together with special alloy rivets
that improve the tip's strength and increases the run time of the
tip. The tips are
designed and checked to have uniformity across the
inner tip assembly for longer wear life. This solid construction
design puts less stress on the rivets and increases the wear life.
