Carbide-tipped band saw blades
SIMONDS Saw, a manufacturer of band
saw blades and files, has introduced
CWT carbide-tipped band saw blades
for demanding production cutting
operations such as those in steel service
centres, foundries and aerospace
sawing applications.
CWT blades are suitable for
aluminium block, aluminium gates and
risers, aluminium automation (Mossner),
Inconel and nickel-based alloys.
Similar to the ‘California wing tip’ tooth
formation used in circular saw blades,
CWT blades have been engineered in a
three-tooth set pattern
with positive rake
geometry.
This provides a
faster, aggressive cut-
ting action and pene-
tration, for increased
performance in pro-
duction sawing appli-
cations.
“Our CWT blades
have been producing
outstanding results,
significantly out-cutting
blades used in foundry
and aerospace applications,” said Dale
Petts, Simonds Saw’s global product
manager.
Simonds CWT carbide tipped blades
are available in five widths (1¼" x 0.042;
1½" x 0.05; 2" x 0.062; 25/8" x 0.062;
and 31/8" x 0.062), and are shipped in
150-foot coils. Variable tooth pitch (TPI)
options include 2-3, 1.9-2.1, 1.4-1.8 and
0.9-1.1 teeth per inch.
Blades are furnished with plastic
capping to protect teeth against damage
in transit and handling.
Simonds blades are made to stringent
quality standards and are manufactured
both in the USA in the company’s
Fitchburg, Massachusetts, headquarters
and in Europe by WESPA®, Simonds’s
band saw blade technology division
located in Melsungen, Germany.
Both factories operate under a single
quality system that is ISO 9001:2008
certified.
