Super Duty Metal Cutting Series Radial Arm Saws

FERROUS
Cutting ferrous material (steel) can also be done quickly and effectively on Original Saw metal cutting series machines. Material up to 8 gage can be effectively cut with our High speed steel blades. These blades running at 3400 RPM are considered friction cutting blades and are actually melting the material rather than cutting the material. With this type of cut the advantages are speed over cut quality. The cut is very accurate however there will be a slight burr because of the friction cutting action. Factors that affect the burr size are material thickness and speed of the carriage is able to travel at during the cut as well as type of material.. Mist coolant on these application is prohibited and will make the burr size much larger.
