Leather thinning or splitting is the specialist preparation of your leather to
a thinner thickness needed for your required work.This is carried out using the
latest electronically controlled machine we have imported from Italy the home of
high class leather work! To process the leather by slicing the back or splitting
the leather in half to leave the top layer the desired finished thickness down to
0.1mm. This is done leaving a smooth finish on the back of the leather.
This process also levels out the surface of the leather as many leathers vary in
thickness across the hide. Part splitting is also possible for items where an edge
needs to be thinner than the rest for turning around something. Border thinning or
frame edge thinning is available; ask for details or for a pattern to be done using
your leather sample. Whether you need large batch thinning for your production or
just a single small piece for button making all orders are just as important to us.
The process can’t be simpler for small orders, just send us your leather, any length,
any shape up to a maximum width of 550 mm along with a small test piece for the machine
set up and we will then process and dispatch back within 7 days, hopefully quicker!
For larger batch orders a delivery time can be agreed and time of despatch by UPS
if needed. Once processed we despatch twice a week on Wednesdays and Fridays
Just call Kevin to discuss your specific requirements.
Automotive:
Many original interiors like Ferrari, Rolls Royce, Porsche etc use
thinned or split leather to cover intricate areas, like sun visors,
dash areas and gear knobs. This service allows you to replicate those
intricate areas with ease using the same leather you are doing the
rest of the leatherwork in.Most Automotive hides are about 1.5mm thick
and some models use 0.5mm on intricate areas. Send us an area of your
leather to thin, up to a maximum width of 550mm (21.5inch) by any length
and we will reduce the leather down to your required finished thickness
with a smooth and even finish to work with.
Leatherwork & Craft.
Whatever you specialize in making in leather from one off items to large
batches we all occasionally get stuck with the material being the wrong
thickness to work with. From bookbinding leather to saddlers leather we all
aim for the same quality and ease of production for our items. This process
enables you to chose the leather you want by looks rather than its thickness!
