Non-Marking Pusher
If you haven’t heard of the Scratch Tamer yet then you may soon be in the minority.
The Scratch Tamer is a new type of pusher recently developed by Champion Screw Machine Eng. to feed bar stock without marking the bar, and it has a steadily growing fan base in the industry. Kevin Coffman of Champion explains, “The response to this product has been very good, and a little surprising. We knew there was a need for a better non-marking pusher, but we never expected the reaction to be so strong. Orders just keep increasing.”
He attributes the success to the fact that the pusher, while new, employs a familiar design. “Many of our customers are comfortable with using cage style pushers. They have tensioned their steel or bronze cage pushers by hand for years. This is just a cage pusher with a poly resin core. Combine that with the fact that compared to bronze pushers the Scratch Tamer costs less, has better availability, and is guaranteed not to mark the
bar, and you have a combination that’s right for those applications.”
The Scratch Tamer is available for National Acme, New Britain, Davenport, Conomatic, Wickman, Tornos, Euroturn, Schutte, Brown & Sharpe, and Greenlee machines. Call Champion, or your local distributor and ask about the Scratch Tamer today.
