Abstract
A refiner segment for a refiner of lignocellulosic material includes a first bar, a second bar, a first dam, and a second dam. The first bar has a width and includes a first bar weakening section. The first bar weakening section includes two planar faces defining a wedge-shaped recess with a tip and a base. The two planar faces meet at the tip. The tip is separated from the base by a depth. The depth is greater than or equal to half of the width and less than or equal to the width. The first dam extends between the first bar and the second bar. The second dam extends between the first bar and the second bar. The first bar, the second bar, the first dam, and the second dam define a first essentially box-shaped region. The first bar weakening section is positioned within the first essentially box-shaped region.
