Extrusion Crossheads for All Applications

---

Design: Single Layer, Fixed Center 

An easy choice for a wide variety of single layer applications and thermo- plastic materials, the JT Series offers many years of proven performance and is an industry standard in fixed center design.  Among the extensive line of JoeTools Crossheads, the JT Series presents exceptional value with a high level of concentricity, a balanced material flow and continuous reliability.

Design: Single Layer, Fixed Center with Snap Tooling

The SH Series (Snap Head) is a master performer in nylon extrusion. Its fixed centered, utilitarian design uses Snap tooling, which makes set-up simple and easy.  And with its smooth, efficient operation, the SH Series is ideal for nylon applications in wire and cable jacketing, requiring a consistent balanced flow that produces high clarity, adhesion and strength.

Design: Single Layer, Fixed Center, Color Inversion with Manual Switch 

The SW Series (Switcher Head) offers extreme efficiency and productivity, with the ability to continuously run 2 consecutive colors without stopping the production process. This dual layer, co-extrusion technology allows the SW Series to easily apply the compound from 2 extruders onto the inner and outer layers of the extruded product.  

Design: Dual Layer, Fixed Center, Color Inversion with Manual Switch 

JoeTools’ ZB Series (Zero-Bleed Crosshead) is the ideal solution for minimal downtime and maximum productivity. With its unique design, the ZB Series heads can continuously run alternating skin or striping colors without stopping the production line! This is a new innovative system of non-stop production that greatly reduces setup time, eliminates waste, and increases sustainability.

Design: Single Layer (& Skin Layer Option), Fixed Center

JoeTools’ FW Series is the choice for a broad range of single layer, fine wire applications. The FW Series offers years of proven performance and is an industry standard among fixed center crossheads. Its condensed design reduces set-up time and brings a high level of operational efficiency, reliability and exceptional value to extrusion processors worldwide. 

Design: Single Layer, Fixed Center, Accepts All Tips & Dies

The UN Series is JoeTools' very unique, multi-functional crosshead, designed to reduce the costs and headaches of maintaining a large inventory of heads for many tips & dies used throughout the year. With JoeTools universal UN Series, you only have to stock one style of crosshead to work with ALL your tips & dies. And this head delivers exceptional quality results with each production run.

Design: Single Layer, Adjustable Center

Along with an adjustable center head, the DS Series (Double Shaft) Crosshead offers a range of coarse and fine core tube adjustments for optimum product flexibility and operator control.  And the simple design of the DS Series crossheads brings a high level of reliability for continuous operation and minimal downtime.

Design: Dual Layer, Fixed Center, Can Convert to Single or Skin Layer

Along with a standard fixed-center dual-layer design, the DL Series (Dual Layer) Crossheads are capable of running single-layer and skin-layer applications with multiple striping options, too. Also, the DL Series can be easily converted into an adjustable-center crosshead with minimal parts. 

 With optimum product flexibility and easy operation, the DL Series Head is a high level performer offering streamlined production with reduced down time and scrap.

Design: Fixed-Center Design, Processes PVC and Nylon Simultaneously

JoeTools’ CX Series (Co-Extrusion) is a co-extrusion crosshead that processes both Nylon and PVC simultaneously. This unique head design uses copper to disperse the high temperature from the nylon, and it produces excellent concentricity and layer thickness. Plus, the sleeving and pressure jacketing of the CX Series provide proven and successful results.

Design: Single or Multiple Layer, Adjustable Center

The IN Series (In-line) Head brings vast experience in extruding a wide range of Hose, Pipe and Tubing products. With an in-line melt flow, this head offers a higher flow balance, minimal pressure fluctuation, better concentricity control, and the elimination of melt fracture to deliver greater product strength. All this makes the IN Series ideal for small, fine tubing that requires consistent wall thickness.

Design: Fixed Center, Extrudes Two Products at Once with One Extruder 

The MW Series (Multi-Wire) is a prominent innovation that JoeTools has brought to the Wire & Cable industry.  With its unique design, the MW Series combines two heads into one, allowing two products to be extruded simultaneously using only one crosshead and extruder. This innovative system for multi-wire runs can bring an enormous increase to productivity, and it begins with easy, quick set ups and reliable, proven performance.
