Sawing

Power hacksawing is done most efficiently with coarse (3T) high speed steel blades using a medium stroke rate and a light feed rate. Band sawing is generally done with a saw having a 0.042-inch raker set and a saw width of 0.50 inch, in conjunction with a flood of soluble lubricant or an air stream to wash away the chips from the cut to give satisfactory results. For cold circular sawing, teeth should be alternately leveled and square, with the leveled teeth slightly higher than the square. The cut and the saw blades should be cooled with soluble coolant. Fine chips should be removed from the area frequently to prevent a build-up of flammable solids. Sawing data recommendations are shown in Tables 18-20.
