Brazed Saw Blades

Cutting tools for brazing may be used to produce a range of finishes and forms in a number of materials. A chip-free finish necessitates regulating the blade depth and utilizing a moderate, constant feed rate, but a smooth finish may be accomplished by using plenty of coolant or cutting oil. A beveled edge can be created by tilting the blade at an angle and cutting at a slow, steady pace, while grooves or channels can be made by multiple cuts in the same line. A rough finish can be achieved by increasing the feed rate and reducing coolant/oil, while straight and curved edges can be achieved using straight or curved guides or templates.

• Smooth: Plenty of coolant or cutting oil

• Chip-free: Adjust depth & slow, steady feed rate

• Beveled: Tilt blade & cut at slow pace

• Grooves: Multiple cuts in same line

• Rough: Increase feed rate, reduce coolant/oil

• Straight: Use straight edge as guide

• Curved: Use curved guide or template
