Description

The Vortex HSS Slitting Saw is a precision cutting tool built for metalworkers who need clean, accurate slots with dependable edge quality. This 6" imperial, coarse-pitch slitting saw is designed for milling slots and keyways with consistent kerf in steel, aluminum, and other alloys.

  • Diameter: 6" (150 mm)
  • Kerf width: 3/64" (~1.19 mm)
  • Bore: 1" (25.4 mm)
  • Teeth: 44
  • Material: High-speed steel (HSS) body for heat resistance and durability
  • Pitch: Coarse pitch for rapid material removal
  • Grounding: Hollow ground to the bore to provide side clearance and reduce rubbing
  • Finish: Bright finish on a durable M2 steel body
  • Tolerance: Kerf tolerances within ±0.001" for consistent cuts

Use this slitting saw to deliver repeatable slots with minimal burrs, even when working with tougher metals. The hollow-ground bore enhances side clearance, helping prevent rubbing and heat buildup during high-speed milling. With 44 teeth arranged for a balanced cut, you’ll achieve faster stock removal without compromising edge quality. The imperial sizing (6" diameter, 1" bore) ensures compatibility with common US milling setups and arbors, while the HSS composition maintains cutting performance under elevated temperatures and repeated use. Ideal for production environments and workshop projects that require dependable, precise slotting equipment.
