ALBERTON: MoreCut Saws, a bandsaw and hacksaw blade supplier in Alrode, Alberton, cuts blade coil and welds it into finished loops through its weld-to-length service. The shop checks the blade against the saw before it is dispatched, because wheel size, guides, blade width and the material on the bench all decide whether the loop runs true or breaks early.
Checked before it leaves Alrode
Each job starts with the machine details: saw length, wheel diameter, guide setup and the material being cut. From there the shop matches the blade type and tooth pattern.
- Bi-metal M42 blades for production cutting and harder material
- Carbon steel blades for lighter work and manual saws
- Fine pitch for thin wall tube and smaller solid bar, coarser pitch for heavy sections
- Variable pitch where section size changes through the cut or chatter shows up
The welded join is dressed so it passes through the guides and wheels cleanly, and length verification and machine fit checks can be added to the order.
“Send the saw details with the blade size, not only the length on the old box. If a blade cracked at the weld or wandered off line, the wheels or the tension are often involved. We’d rather look at that first than weld you the same problem again,” according to MoreCut’s blade welding technician.
After the blade is fitted
New blades should be run in with a lighter feed before full production, with coolant on tougher steels and long cuts. When a blade breaks early or cuts crooked, MoreCut’s blade failure review looks at the cut marks, guide alignment and feed before the next blade is recommended. Starter kit planning can group the common sizes and pitches a workshop uses most.
Welded blades go to workshops in Alberton, Germiston, Boksburg, Johannesburg, Pretoria, Vereeniging, Durban and Cape Town. Pricing is based on blade grade, loop length, width, thickness and the welding work involved.
The full blade range and selection guides are on the MoreCut Saws website. Metalworking and fabrication machines are available through am.co.za.
