LENOX introduces the CircTech Precision CM 100 circular saw blade, a new product in the LENOX industrial circular saw blade lineup, designed for optimal performance when cutting carbon steels and mild alloys.
Beneficial in a variety of industries including steel service centers, machine job shops, automotive and aerospace, the new LENOX CircTech Precision CM 100 circular saw blade features:
- Long Blade Life. The LENOX CircTech Precision CM 100's cermet tooth tips help to withstand heat and offer wear resistance, while a honed tooth edge helps to reduce noise, tip fractures and extends blade life.
- Straight cuts and excellent finish. The CircTech CM 100’s unique tooth geometry maximizes cutting efficiency and provides straight cuts with a mirror-like finish. An optimized, radius-shaped chip breaker helps eliminate weak points in high stress areas on the blades’ tip, providing durability to the teeth, resulting in straight cuts and an excellent finish.
- Consistency. Plates are laser cut and expertly flattened, while an advanced tensioning system maintains plate flatness and keeps tight tolerances. Precise grinding, plate flatness and balance offer consistency and high performance, cut after cut. Run out and flatness are considered among the best in the industry.
“The industrial cutting market is constantly changing and our customers demand solutions that improve their cutting performance. CircTech CM100 allows LENOX to meet our customers’ cutting challenges," commented Dan Fernandes, global product manager.
Related Glossary Terms
- alloys
alloys
Substances having metallic properties and being composed of two or more chemical elements of which at least one is a metal.
- carbon steels
carbon steels
Known as unalloyed steels and plain carbon steels. Contains, in addition to iron and carbon, manganese, phosphorus and sulfur. Characterized as low carbon, medium carbon, high carbon and free machining.
- centers
centers
Cone-shaped pins that support a workpiece by one or two ends during machining. The centers fit into holes drilled in the workpiece ends. Centers that turn with the workpiece are called “live” centers; those that do not are called “dead” centers.
- circular saw
circular saw
Cutoff machine utilizing a circular blade with serrated teeth. See saw, sawing machine.
- grinding
grinding
Machining operation in which material is removed from the workpiece by a powered abrasive wheel, stone, belt, paste, sheet, compound, slurry, etc. Takes various forms: surface grinding (creates flat and/or squared surfaces); cylindrical grinding (for external cylindrical and tapered shapes, fillets, undercuts, etc.); centerless grinding; chamfering; thread and form grinding; tool and cutter grinding; offhand grinding; lapping and polishing (grinding with extremely fine grits to create ultrasmooth surfaces); honing; and disc grinding.
- sawing machine ( saw)
sawing machine ( saw)
Machine designed to use a serrated-tooth blade to cut metal or other material. Comes in a wide variety of styles but takes one of four basic forms: hacksaw (a simple, rugged machine that uses a reciprocating motion to part metal or other material); cold or circular saw (powers a circular blade that cuts structural materials); bandsaw (runs an endless band; the two basic types are cutoff and contour band machines, which cut intricate contours and shapes); and abrasive cutoff saw (similar in appearance to the cold saw, but uses an abrasive disc that rotates at high speeds rather than a blade with serrated teeth).
- wear resistance
wear resistance
Ability of the tool to withstand stresses that cause it to wear during cutting; an attribute linked to alloy composition, base material, thermal conditions, type of tooling and operation and other variables.
