Description
The Vortex HSS Slitting Saw is a premium, imperial-size cutting wheel designed for precise slotting and light milling on ferrous metals. Crafted for professional shops and serious hobbyists, this 2-1/2" diameter, 28-tooth saw with a 1" bore and 3/64" wide kerf delivers dependable performance with a coarse pitch.
- Diameter: 2-1/2" (63.5 mm) cutting edge for slotting and shallow milling
- Kerf width: 3/64" (0.047") kerf for efficient material removal and clean slots
- Bore: 1" bore to fit standard slitting saw arbors
- Teeth: 28 teeth for a coarse-pitch cutting action
- Material: HSS (high-speed steel) body and tooth edge for heat resistance and durability
- Ground to bore: Hollow-ground to provide side clearance and reduce rubbing near the bore
- Kerf tolerance: Tight tolerance within +/- 0.001" for repeatable, accurate cuts
- Finish: Bright finish consistent with DIN stock standards
Designed for dependable, repeatable slotting in metalworking applications, the Vortex HSS Slitting Saw combines robust HSS construction with a hollow-ground bore to maximize clearance and cutting stability. The 1" bore and 28-tooth geometry offer a strong balance of rigidity and aggressiveness, helping you achieve clean slots with minimal burrs and reduced finish work. The precise 0.001" kerf tolerance supports consistent results across production runs, making this saw a reliable choice for fabrication, toolmaking, and production milling tasks.
