The Vortex HSS Slitting Saw is designed for machinists who demand precise, durable slotting in metalworking. With imperial sizing and a robust 5" diameter, this 1/8" thick saw features a 1" bore and 42 teeth for efficient, clean slots in ferrous and non-ferrous materials.

  • Diameter: 5" (127 mm) for broad reach in slotting operations
  • Thickness: 1/8" (3.2 mm) blade width for strong, stable cuts
  • Bore: 1" (25.4 mm) to fit standard slitting saw arbors
  • Teeth: 42 teeth for a balanced combination of slotting speed and finish
  • Material: High-speed steel (HSS) construction for toughness and wear resistance
  • Pitch: Coarse pitch optimized for efficient material removal in slotting
  • Ground geometry: Hollow ground to the bore to provide side clearance and reduce rubbing
  • Kerf tolerance: ±0.001" to support precise slot dimensions
  • Series: Imperial sizing, ideal for US-based machining setups

Designed for reliable, repeatable results, this HSS slitting saw helps you create accurate narrow slots with minimal finishing work. The hollow-ground bore reduces rubbing and heat buildup, while the tight kerf tolerance ensures consistent slot width. Pair it with a compatible arbor, use proper coolant, and set appropriate speeds and feeds to maximize tool life and slot quality. Whether you’re cutting slots for keys, locating slots, or preparing precise channels, this Vortex slitting saw delivers solid performance and lasting value.
