FAQ

What materials can this slitting saw cut?

The saw is suitable for cutting a range of metals including mild steel, stainless steel, aluminum, brass, and titanium alloys. Its high speed steel teeth maintain sharpness even on tougher materials.

Can the saw be used on CNC milling machines?

Yes, the 1″ arbor hole is compatible with most CNC milling spindle configurations. The tool’s tight tolerances ensure accurate positioning and repeatable results in automated machining processes.

How often should the saw be replaced?

Tool life depends on material hardness, cutting speed, and feed rates. For typical metal fabrication work, the saw can perform thousands of cuts before noticeable wear. Regular inspection for tooth wear and chip buildup will help determine the optimal replacement interval.

Is there a recommended cutting speed for this tool?

For most steel applications, a surface speed of 150–200 feet per minute provides a good balance between productivity and tool longevity. Adjust speeds based on material type and thickness to achieve optimal results.
