• To be used with spray mist or emulsion coolant for maximal results
• For relevant applications, a recoating program is available

Applications:

• Cutting thin walled (stainless) tubes and profiles, sticky materials
• Suggested cutting speed:
  Austenitic stainless steel (300 series) 30 – 50 m/min
  Ferritic w/o Ti (409 & 412) 220 – 260 m/min
  Ferritic with Ti (441) 60 – 120 m/min
• Machines: Automatic, semi-automatic, flying cut off applications

Ideal for cutting (stainless) steel tubes and sticky materials

Fusion NX saw blades have specifically been designed for stainless steel applications and sticky materials, but they are also suitable for cutting (thin walled) steel tubes and stainless steel flying cut-off applications.

Advantages:

• Ideal for (thin walled) stainless steel tubes and sticky materials
• Dedicated thin PVD coating
• Reduced side pick-up
• Very low friction coefficient
• Wear resistant

• Suggested cutting speed:
  Steel 60 – 120 m/min
  Austenitic stainless steel (300 series) 30 – 50 m/min
  Ferritic w/o Ti (409 & 412) 220 – 260 m/min
  Ferritic with Ti (441) 60 – 120 m/min
• Machines: Automatic, semi-automatic and flying cut off applications

Perfect surface finish and burr-free tube ends cutting austenitic stainless steel tubes

The high nickel content of austenitic stainless steel tubes makes them difficult to cut with HSS saw blades.

With the dedicated tooth geometry of the carbide tipped and PVD coated CX 4 saw blade, perfect surface finish and burr-free tube ends will be achieved.

Applications:

• High performance cutting of stainless steel tube (austenitic, ferritic)
• Suggested cutting speed: 80 – 140 m/min
• Feed: 0,06 – 0,12 mm/tooth
• Machines: Rattunde, Soco, Bewo, RSA, Sinico

Note: Respect 10% fill ratio, use wire brush. Be aware of tube vibration when cutting less stable products (use form jaws). Choice of cutting oil is critial to achieve high blade life (Castrol B30 or B335 suggested). Positive geometry, carefull handling of saw blade to prevent tooth damage.

HSS Fernox – The allround HSS Solution

Due to a sophisticated PVD coating for wear protection which achieves a very low friction coefficient, the Fernox saw blade is a cost efficient solution for cutting structural and non-alloy tool steel thin walled tubes.

When cutting tubes and profiles on manual and semi-automatic sawing machines, Fernox allows a higher cutting speed than a steam treated saw blade. It can even be used for cutting thin walled tubes on automatic machines.

Fernox is also very suitable for cutting stainless steel tubes and profiles.

Advantages compared to steam treated:

• Higher blade life
• Increased uptime
• Lower cost per cut
• Little to no side pick-up
• Higher production output
• Ideal for cutting both structural- and stainless steel

Applications:

• All structural steel and non-alloy steel thin walled tubes
• Tensile strength up to 600 N/mm²
• Steel – Suggested cutting speed: 60 – 120 m/min
• Austenitic stainless steel (300 series) – Suggested cutting speed: 30 – 50 m/min
• Ferritic w/o Ti (409 & 412) – Suggested cutting speed: 220 – 260 m/min
• Ferritic with Ti (441) – Suggested cutting speed: 60 – 120 m/min
• Feed: 0,03 – 0,09 mm/tooth
• Machines: manual, semi-automatic, automatic, flying cut-off applications

Orbital flying cut-off – Stainless steel

The TubeMaster Stainless saw blade has specifically been developed for cutting stainless steel tubes on orbital flying cut-off units.

These saw blades can cope with cutting speeds between 60 – 120 m/min.

TubeMaster Stainless offers high uptime due to a blade life up to 3,5 m², combined with high cut quality and production output.

Applications:

• Orbital flying cut-off applications
• Suggested cutting speed: 60 – 120 m/min
• Feed: 0.035 – 0.10 mm/tooth
• TubeMaster Stainless saw blades are available for all orbital cutting machines.

Note: To accomodate higher requirements of line speed or reduce vibration level, much higher cutting speeds (up to 600 m/min) can be applied. Tooth load can be raised , while respecting max fill ratio of 10% during entry. Respect max cut depth of 3mm.
