GF cold saw blades have the ability to perform a precise cut on tubes and pipes within a matter of seconds. The basic requirements for a high-quality blade are to perform a precise, right-angled, and burr-free cut. GF blades cut and bevel high-alloy steel (stainless steel), low- and unalloyed steel, plastics, casting materials, and non-ferrous metals easily and in just seconds. 

GF Cold Saw Blades: Features and Applications

Designed to increase the service life of both the machine and the blade, GF blades have numerous applications and features that make it a perfect choice:

• Enhanced safety due to stationary pipe – rotating tool.
• Self-centring vice.
• Low-maintenance.
• Speed-controlled pipe cutting application.
• Burr-free cutting surface and deformation-free pipe cross-section.
• Cold machining processes.
• Cutting of elbows.
• Reduces the amount of physical effort for the operator.

 

Follow The Steps Below For Longer Blade Life

Following are few industry proven “Rules-of-thumb” to help you get the most out of your blade for a prolonged time period.

Break-In Procedure

For the first 15 minutes of a new blade being fitted to the machine, maintain normal blade speed & reduce the down feed. The blade should effectively rub the material to be cut & only produce swarf as ‘filings’.

This is best achieved by cutting a solid piece of mild steel with half the normal down feed pressure. The process creates a honing effect to the tips of the teeth where they are microscopically dulled.

Blade Speed

Blade speed should differ depending on the material being cut, however, below are speeds for the most general application of GF cold saw blades.

• Mild steel: 70 – 80 metres/minute
• Stainless steel: 45 – 55 metres/minute

Feed Rate

You can tell this by looking at the Swarf, what you want is ‘fingernail’ type swarf curls that only do 1 to 1.5 curls (max), and aren’t blue/darkened with heat.

Blade Tension

This is critical for accuracy in cutting and for maximum Blade life. To manually check for sufficient tension, ensure the Machine is turned off and place the palm of the hand on the back of the Blade, in between the Blade Guides. By pressing down towards the bed of the Machine, there should be nothing more than 1-2 mm of movement.

Circular saw blades are widely in use by numerous professional metal and woodworkers. Using a circular saw blade, these machines used circular rotary motion to cut many materials with ease. You simply need to choose the correct blade suited for your application and this article will help you achieve exactly that. 

Circular Saw Blades: The Most Versatile Tools In Any Shop

The types of materials a circular saw blade can cut, but are not limited to:

• Hardwood and softwood lumber
• Plywood and manufactured panels
• Plastic laminate and laminate flooring
• Light-gauge steel
• Vinyl and aluminium siding
• Wood siding
• Plexiglas
• Natural stone
• Concrete blocks and pavers
• Ceramic tiles, quarry tiles, and terra cotta roof tiles
• PVC and ABS plumbing pipes

 

Designed To Perfection

The same tool may have the power to cut plywood or concrete, but it can only do each job if it has the right blade. There is a different choice of the blade for different applications. They are designed and engineered for a specific cut and may not work well with other types of material. 

For example, Crosscutting blades aren’t to be used on making rip cuts. It is inappropriate to use incorrect blades for certain materials because they are not sufficient to cut the certain material and can even cause damage both on the material and the blade; always use the most appropriate blade for the given material.

A circular dry cut saw blade is designed to make precise cuts on a material at a particular angle. The best circular dry cut saw blades are compatible with high powered machines, are very efficient, and are easily portable. 

Circular saw blades are mounted on the arm in the saw machine, which can be pivoted left and right to deliver a precise and quick cut. Precision is the selling factor for dry cut saw blades. The blades are mounted so sturdily that the cut can be fine-tuned to the width of the blade. 

With a dry cut saw blade, you can shave off the tiniest bits from your metal surface until you get your perfect dimensions. The stability of the dry cut circular saw blades makes them the safest tools in the power tools category.

Circular Dry Cut Saw Blades: Designed To Multitask With Perfection

A dry cut metal saw enables you to cut mild steel, aluminium, and wood, with a single blade. Dry cut saws outperform abrasive saws as they get the job done much faster. Additionally, one blade can last longer than multiple abrasive discs. Finally, these saws allow you to cut mild steel with no sparks, heat, or burrs. 

The size of the blades manufactured at Sawblade.com.au vary from 12 inches in diameter to 15 inches. This range of diameter covers every application of metal cutting.

The biggest advantage of buying a cold saw blank is that you can have your preferred number of teeth cut into it. You can also select the tooth geometry of your choice. Made in Italy, from the highest quality High-Speed Steel – this is the common product used for cutting alloys and common steel. All the blades are made in super high-speed steel with a high tungsten and molybdenum content.

These elements of composition ensure that, after heat treatment, extremely high hardness and suitable tenacity is achieved. The right tungsten percentage is essential to create the correct quantity of very hard wear-resistant carbides to improve the tool life under high temperatures.

Carbide Cold Saw Blade Blanks: Built To Perfection

The tungsten increases the mechanical endurance of the tool, improving the cutting performance and preventing the austenitic grain enlargement (In Material science, austenite grain growth is the increase in size of grains in a material at high temperature). The tungsten is also essential to guarantee the formation of a fine martensitic structure, and increases the tool tenacity, maintaining a high mechanical resistance. Vanadium is the element that forms the hardest, wear-resistant carbides amongst all other alloys.

It is super high-speed steel that, in addition to the alloy elements already present in the Dmo5, also contains 5% cobalt. Cobalt does not form carbides but, in high-speed steel, favours the stability of the structure during tempering, obstructs critical grain growth and above all, maintains an excellent degree of hardness at high operating temperatures. These characteristics are very important when cutting very high-alloy materials such as stainless steel and very hard metals, which tend to develop high temperatures in the cutting zone.

Advantages Of Using Blank Cold Saw Blades

• Satisfaction guaranteed.
• Our blades are long lasting with extremely high wear resistance.
• Supplied in quality boxes that will last the life of the blade.
• They can be easily resharpened.
