Steel cut off saw

Steel cut off saw

Known also as a steel chop saw. These portable hand operated machine are capable of cutting small sections of steel and other materials. They typically use composite friction disk blades to abrasively cut through the steel. The disks are consumable items as they wear away during the course of the work.The blade size is usually 355mm x 3.0mm with varying hole diameters to suit different manufacturers' shaft sizes.Larger saws have 410mm dia. blades.

Usage

The saw is set up on a firm base and the material is clamped in position. Long lengths of material need their ends supporting. As the cut is made the blade abrades its way through the material.
