Product advice
The right steel grade and geometry for your machine, material and duty cycle — not a one-size catalogue part.
Blades and wear parts for scrap shears, balers, shredders and granulators — built to survive the toughest cut in recycling and to keep your machine running longer between changeouts.
High-alloy tool-steel blades and matched wear parts for stationary and mobile machines. Engineered to OEM geometry, or reverse-engineered from your worn part and sample drawing.
For stationary and mobile scrap shears — alligator, demolition and excavator shears. High-alloy tool steel built for extreme cutting loads.

Learn more →Rotor and stator knives for shredders and granulators — ground to hold a working edge through high-throughput size reduction.
Learn more →Hardened hammer pins for shredders — dimensioned to your rotor and heat-treated for impact and wear.
Learn more →Counter-blades, blade linings and seats, adjusting pieces, strippers, plates and strips — the parts that wear alongside the blade.
Learn more →The fasteners that complete the install — bolts, nuts and bushings matched to the blade and machine.
Learn more →A cheaper blade that changes out twice as often costs you more — in steel, in setup time, and in the production you lose while the machine is down. Lifetime is the real lever on cost efficiency.
Schematic, not a quote. The mix of steel, downtime and labour differs by machine and material — which is exactly what we model with you before recommending a grade and geometry.
Specification, lifetime optimisation, re-welding and on-site support — the engineering around the part is where the lifetime is actually won.
The right steel grade and geometry for your machine, material and duty cycle — not a one-size catalogue part.
We analyse wear patterns and adjust material and edge to push service life and lower your cost per tonne.
Hard-facing and re-welding to recover worn edges and extend the life of parts already in service.
Maintenance and on-machine installation support, so the part performs the way it was specified to.
Numerous recycling companies across Europe already source blades and wear parts from a single supplier — PRINZ Blades.
PRINZ Blades is a family-run manufacturer. Sales and shipping are managed from Cologne; the company's registered office is in Mayen. The team brings more than twenty years of experience in blade manufacturing and the recycling industry — in the mid-market and on a global scale.
Customers profit from the quality and breadth of the portfolio and from efficient, dependable processes. The promise is simple: parts that last, delivered by people who answer the phone.
Built for the circular economy. Our parts keep recyclers cutting — and our website runs CO₂-neutral, certified through co2neutralwebsite.de.
