We Run One Too

Coil From a Plant With Its Own TF550H

We run a FRAMECAD TF550H in our own plant, so we know what these machines need from a coil: the right slit width, consistent thickness, clean edges and a coil weight the decoiler can handle.

The slit widths below are the ones our FRAMECAD customers run every day: 7.52″ for the 362S162 (3-5/8″) stud and 9.80″ for the 600S162 (6″) stud. Slit width is set by the profile, not the gauge, so it stays the same for every mil.
