PVD Coated with double blade life compared to steam treated

A thin layer of high-tech coating protects the Steam-eX saw blade against wear on the sides. This ensures a long blade life, fewer blade changes and an improved surface finish.

Advantages:

  • Double blade life compared to steam treated blades
  • No side pick-up

Applications:

  • All materials like tubes, profiles and solids.
  • All structural steels and non-alloy steel with a tensile strength up to 700 N/mm2
  • Suggested cutting speed: 30 – 60 m/min
  • Machines: manual, semi-automatic
