Carbide slitting saws
What is Solid Carbide Slitting Saws？
The solid carbide slitting saw, which is made entirely of solid carbide material (also known as ‘cemented carbide’ or ‘tungsten steel’), is primarily used for producing precision slots and cuts with CNC milling machines.
Why Carbide?
Compared to HSS material, carbide metal saw blades provide longer tool life and decreased cycle times. Furthermore, they offer excellent performance due to their high hardness and long wear life. Consequently, solid carbide slitting saws can achieve high-speed milling and high processing efficiency. As a result, milled grooves are dimensionally accurate and have a good finish, leading to high product quality. Additionally, these saws can be widely used for milling and grooving various materials such as wood, copper, aluminum, and other difficult-to-machine materials, including ordinary steel, hardened steel, bearing steel, stainless steel, and titanium alloy
What material can be cut by solid carbide slitting saw blades?
Aluminum and aluminum alloys
Copper, brass and bronze alloys
Other Non-ferrous metal alloys
Wood/Plastics non-metal
Ordinary steel
Hardened steel
Cast iron
Titanium alloy

Selection Steps of Carbide Slitting Saws
01
Select the Outer Diameter
Generally, the outer diameter is selected by the depth of cut(Table 1)
02
Select the Inner Diameter
Find the corresponding inner hole according to the outer diameter (Table 2)
03
Determine the Thickness
Determine the thickness of the saw blade according to the cutting needs (Table 2)
04
Coarse or Fine Pitch?
If you’re working with non-ferrous metals, ToolingBox suggests a Coarse Pitch, and finer pitch saws for ferrous metals.
