Alpha
The standard for all structural- and non-alloyed tool steel
The Alpha saw blade has a blue Oxide surface layer for a longer blade life compared to the uncoated saw blade.
It’s main use is for cutting steel on manual and semi-automatic sawing machines.
Applications:
- All materials like tubes, profiles and solids
- All structural steels and non-alloy tool steel with a tensile strength up to 700 N/mm2
- Suggested cutting speed: 30 – 60 m/min
- Machines: manual, semi-automatic
