Abstract
A saw blade such as a bandsaw blade, circular saw blade, or backsaw blade has a pair of leading teeth which cut the workpiece and advance in a feed direction while the workpiece is being cut and a plurality of trailing teeth which cut the workpiece later than the leading teeth and serve to widen the leading cut channel. The leading teeth and the trailing teeth form one basic group in which the heights of the trailing teeth from a basic position on the saw blade are equal to or smaller than the height of the leading teeth. The trailing teeth are set in the right and left directions with respect to the saw blade and the leading teeth are slightly set with respect to the saw blade.
Claims14
A saw blade for cutting metallic materials comprising a combination of a right-set tooth, which is bent to the right, a left-set tooth which is bent to the left in relation to the running direction of the saw blade, and an unset tooth which is not bent, and
- further comprising:
- a first pattern wherein the teeth are positioned in the running direction in the order of right set tooth, unset tooth, left-set tooth;
- and
- a second pattern wherein the teeth are positioned in the running direction in the order of left-set tooth, unset tooth, right-set tooth;
- and
- an odd number greater than one of additional set teeth positioned between said first and second patterns,
- wherein said additional set teeth are positioned such that right-set teeth and left-set teeth are adjacent each other.
A saw blade for cutting metallic materials comprising a combination of teeth each having a set direction, including a right-set tooth, which is bent to the right, a left-set tooth which is bent to the left in relation to the running direction of the saw blade, and an unset tooth which is not bent, and
- further comprising;
- a first pattern wherein the teeth are positioned in the running direction in the order of right-set tooth, unset tooth, left-set tooth;
- and
- a second pattern wherein the teeth are positioned in the running direction in the order of left-set tooth, unset tooth, right-set tooth;
- and
- an odd number of additional set teeth positioned between said first and second patterns,
- wherein the first pattern and second pattern are positioned alternately,
- wherein said odd number of additional set teeth are set toward the opposite direction against the set direction of a tooth positioned at both sides of each additional tooth;
- and
- wherein the teeth of the saw blade form one group of twelve teeth, comprising said first pattern and three additional set teeth and said second pattern and three additional set teeth.
