'GK' group is a pionner in making solid Stainless Steel Forged CTC Segments since 1971. ZENITH Segments are being used by large number of Tea Planters and CTC Machine manufacturers as Original Equipment. More and more Tea Planters are switching over to 'ZENITH' Segments as they are found to be of highest quality conforming to IS:8748/1978.
ZENITH Segments are normally supplied with plain faces but can also be supplied with jig drilled pin holes and pins at extra cost. Normally 5mm pins are supplied but 6 mm pins can also be supplied if requested.
