- Two to five headblocks set at customer specified spacing – Meets customer needs for log lengths and mixes
- Standard frame is precision fabricated from massive, 1/2” wall, 8” x 8” and 6” x 8” tubing – Rigid, accurate, long-lasting
- Larger frames are available as options – Extreme duty carriages built to meet your specific needs
- Carriage axles are machined from a single 2 3/4” square alloy blank – makes carriage more rigid,and tracks perfectly for accurate lumber and cants
- 14” wheels equipped with Timken roller bearings are mounted on 64” centers – smooth, trouble-free, accurate operation.
- Heavy-duty fabricated 3/4” bunks utilize long lasting 3/4” alloy steel wear plates – can be replaced to extend overall carriage life
- Knees are precision fabricated from 1” solid steel bases and two 5/8” side plates and 3/4” face plates – longer lasting, more durable
- Knees attach to bunks with a wrap-around mount for stability – extremely accurate lumber, high durability, less maintenance
- Adjustable, replaceable synthetic wear strips on the top, bottom, and sides of knee mounts – maintains perfect fit, easy maintenance, long life
