PANEL TRIMMING - PT GROUP
For fine super trimming of panels. The high number of teeth and tooth grinding
on these blades give a super fine finish in panel materials, especially laminated on
two sides. A slow feed speed is required with these blades.

ALUMINIUM/PLASTIC - AP GROUP
The particular grinding on these blades ensure they will give a fine finish in
thin walled extrusions of non-ferrous metals or plastics. They have a
negative hook angle.

The blades in this group have various pitches giving coarse, medium or a fine
finish. They are ideal for crosscutting applications in a variety of materials.
These blades have zero or negative hook angle to minimise “pick-up” and
“snatching”.

Caring for your sawblades:
Cleaning and maintenance
Sawblades must be handled with great care to keep them in
a good condition and to protect the user. To avoid accidents
or damage, they should be left in their packaging prior to
fitting to the saw. The sawblades should be carried by a
handle or hook fitted through the bore.
After removal from the machine, blades should be stored in
their original packaging or other protective case or rack.
After prolonged use the cutting edges will become dull, this
is evident by slowing down of the cut, a poor quality finish
and excessive heat build up. Prior to honing (sharpening)
the saw blade should be cleaned with a resin solvent such as
RESIN CLEANER® to remove residue. A DMT diamond flat
file - fine grade can then be used to lightly hone the face of
the tips removing only a minimal equal amount from each
tooth. For heavier re-sharpening or fine chip removal,TCT
sawblades should sent for professional re-grinding. A dry
lubricant spray TRENDICOTE® can then be sprayed onto the
blade before use to minimise future resin build-up.
