Value Collection 5-747-185 Slitting Slotting Saw 4.5in Hss

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 5-747-185 is a high speed steel slitting and slotting saw designed for precision cutting operations on metals, plastics, and similar materials. With a blade diameter of 4.5 inches and a 3/32-inch (0.0938 inch) thickness, this saw produces narrow kerfs suited for slotting, slitting, and cutoff work on manual and CNC milling machines. The 1-inch arbor hole with keyway accepts standard arbor mounts for secure, concentric seating during operation. Machinists and toolroom professionals install this type of saw for applications that demand tight tolerances and repeatable cuts.

This slitting saw is suited for light to medium-duty milling operations in job shops, toolrooms, and production environments. The 36 straight teeth and concave-ground geometry help reduce friction and blade deflection during the cut. The bright uncoated finish is appropriate for use on ferrous and non-ferrous metals where additional coating is not required. Right-hand cutting direction matches standard spindle rotation on most vertical and horizontal milling machines.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by a machinist or toolroom professional. Power down and lock out the milling machine before mounting or removing the saw blade. Seat the blade flush against the arbor collar and ensure the keyway is properly engaged before torquing the arbor nut. Inspect the blade for cracks or missing teeth before each use and follow applicable shop safety standards for abrasive and rotary cutting tools.
