Typical Applications
- Stainless steel tube, pipe, bar, and profile cutting on manual, semi-automatic, automatic, and flying cut-off lines.
- Medium-tensile carbon steel and alloy steel cutting, typically in the 550-700 MPa range, where a more heat-resistant HSS cold saw blade is needed.
- Production environments where M2 DMo5 no longer delivers acceptable HSS saw blade life on stainless steel or more demanding steel grades.
- Replacement and upgrade projects where buyers need high speed steel circular saw blades with stronger heat resistance but the same practical size range as M2.
Key Performance Advantages
- M35 Co5 is the standard HSS saw blade upgrade for stainless steel and medium-tensile steel cutting.
- Compared with M2, it keeps hardness more effectively under higher-temperature cutting conditions and more adhesive stainless steel applications.
- It is a reliable cold saw blade for stainless steel tube, pipe, and profile work where edge life and cut consistency must improve without moving immediately to carbide.
- The production range follows the familiar M2 format, making it easier to upgrade existing cold saw blade programs.
Problems This Circular Saw Blade Helps Solve
- Rapid wear and loss of edge retention when M2 HSS circular saw blades are used on stainless steel.
- Unstable cut quality and higher burr levels in more demanding stainless or medium-tensile steel operations.
- Excessive resharpening frequency when standard HSS saw blades are pushed into 550-700 MPa steel work.
- Tooling inconsistency in shops cutting both stainless steel and more demanding alloy or carbon steel grades.
Application Notes
- Choose M35 Co5 when stainless steel is a routine workload or when medium-tensile steel starts to exceed the comfortable daily range of M2.
- This HSS cold saw blade is especially suitable for stainless steel tube, pipe, bar, and profile cutting where heat resistance matters.
- M35 Co5 is also a practical HSS saw blade choice for flying cut-off systems processing stainless steel and medium-tensile steel sections.
- Match coating, tooth form, feed, and coolant strategy to the section size and alloy family for better HSS saw blade life.
- For significantly harder steel pipe, solid bar, or higher-output cut-off lines beyond normal M35 practice, move up to HSS Saw Blades for High-Strength Steel and Stainless Steel or evaluate carbide/cermet options.
Grade Selection Guide
- Step down to HSS Saw Blades for Carbon Steel and Aluminum Tube if most work is routine carbon steel, common alloy steel, or aluminum tube and you do not need a stainless-focused grade.
- Stay with this grade when stainless steel and 550-700 MPa medium-tensile steel are the regular workload and M2 no longer gives acceptable tool life.
- Move up to HSS Saw Blades for High-Strength Steel and Stainless Steel when harder steel pipe, solid bar, or higher-output cut-off lines begin to exceed normal M35 practice.
