Description
KRAKEN 2×72 Belt Grinder Platen and Deep Backing Plate Kit
Add a platen assembly to your KRAKEN belt grinder with this weld-together kit. The tab-and-slot design locates the platen parts during assembly, and the deep backing plate bolts to the included aluminum tooling arm.
What’s included
- Deep backing plate and weld-together platen assembly parts
- 15-inch-long, 1-1/2 x 1-1/2-inch aluminum tooling arm, drilled and tapped for the backing plate
- Replaceable 2 x 8-inch wear plate that bolts to the platen
- Two 2-inch-diameter aluminum contact wheels
- Fasteners to assemble the kit
Assembly and fitment
A small amount of welding is required to complete the platen assembly. This kit is intended for the KRAKEN 2×72 belt grinder. If you plan to use it with another grinder, check your tooling arm receiver and mounting requirements before ordering.
The replaceable wear plate can be modified to accept a bonded glass platen if you choose.
