Cutting 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:
- Cutting austenitic stainless steel tubes
- Suggested cutting speed: 80 – 140 m/min
- Feed: 0,06 – 0,12 mm/tooth
- Machines: Rattunde, Bewo, RSA, Sinico
