High strength steels require special considerations be taken when building a feed line. The photo at top left shows a line rated to run 36" wide x .500" thick material with a yield strength of up to 120 KSI! It employs two straighteners - one in the base of the cradle having 8" diameter rolls, one at the feeder with 5" diameter rolls - for maximum versatility. High strength steel requires significantly larger straightener rolls and roll spacing that same thickness mild steel.  Feed Lease is an expert at running HSS.  Our "Engineered Solutions" approach to our customer's applications is especially necessary when evaluating the best equipment for HSS.

The photo at left shows a space saving method for running high strength material. This unit is rated for a maximum width of 42" and can run up to .394" thick material at 85 KSI in only 23 feet!  It employs one of our servo powered feeder straighteners with hydraulic pilot release and a massive upper straightener roll assembly specially designed for the heaviest, high tensile material available today!!  Truly this is an unmatched system for running heavy gauge, high strength material in a space saving environment.  By employing a secondary, pull thru straightener, the system can also run lighter gauge materials.
