About T.C.T Compound Mitre Saws

T.C.T stands for tungsten carbide-tipped. This refers to the type of blade used by this cutting saw. T.C.T blades are made from alloy steel with the tips of the teeth brazed with tungsten carbide inserts. These blades can operate at much higher temperatures than standard coldsaw blades, which means they can be run at much higher surface speeds to produce a faster cut while also maintaining an acceptable chip load per tooth.

T.C.T saws are ideal for cutting non-ferrous metal including aluminium, copper, and brass. A T.C.T saw will give you better value for money as well as a faster, cleaner cut when working with these materials.

T.C.T blades and saws hold a very long wear life and superior cutting performance, however, they are less resistant to shock. This is why MACC have manufactured T.C.T saws specifically to suit these blades that deliver reduced vibration during the cutting process.

Why Choose T.C.T Compound Mitre Saws

There’s no doubt that T.C.T saw blades are essential for cutting non-ferrous metal but why has this blade been paired with a compound mitre saw? Mitre saws are the best of the best when it comes to creating angled cuts thanks to the extremely high level of precision they provide. Essentially this is the best tool for making perfectly accurate crosscuts and mitre cuts with precise angles.

A compound mitre saw also offers single and dual bevel options, giving you far greater angle variety and flexibility compared to a basic mitre saw model. A dual bevel option allows you to make left and right bevel cuts without having to move the workpiece to make the second cut.

This saw is particularly effective if the pieces of metal you are working with are too cumbersome to move easily. The T.C.T compound mitre saw is also ideal if you need to make bevel cuts and you regularly need to complete fast and precise cuts for non-ferrous metals.

If you need to meet these three requirements when looking for the next saw to invest in, the T.C.T compound mitre saw is a perfect choice.
