KwickSaddle® system for attaching drag pads to slitting line tension boards.
KwickSaddle® is a tough plastic, covered with a gripper material which firmly secures most felts and carpets. When using KwickSaddles®, service centers have realized as much as 60% savings on tension pads and other labor costs. KwickSaddle® reduces labor, downtime, and wear on tension boards. The self-adhering gripper layer eliminates nails, staples, and mechanical fasteners. Your drag pad clings tightly during production, but releases easily for drag pad change-out.
Advantages
• KWICKSADDLE® design reduces pad size
• Eliminates nailing or stapling of the pad to the tension board
• Improves board life due to absence of nailing
