The CGW 45404 is a 12 inch by 1 inch bore metal-cutting saw blade designed for efficient dry cutting in dedicated metal-cutting saws. It features a CERMET-tipped edge, combining ceramic and carbide materials to deliver enhanced wear and heat resistance for demanding metalworking applications. The thin-kerf design helps reduce material waste and contributes to cooler operation and steadier cuts, which can translate to less post-cut deburring and cleanup in many setups.
Construction details noted in the verified data emphasize precision; the blade employs hardened and tensioned flat plates to promote stable, straight cuts with reduced sparking. The combination of CERMET tips and a 54-tooth configuration aims to balance cutting speed with blade life, offering potentially longer service intervals compared with standard carbide-tipped blades when cutting mild steel, pipe, angle iron, and similar materials. The blade is suitable for use in dry-cut metal cutting saws and is intended for general-purpose metal fabrication tasks where robust, reliable performance is required.
