Re: CUTTING CARBON FIBRE

 

Hi ARM
You need a carbide grit blade.? It specially made for exactly what you're doing,? Its for materials that abrades rather than form chips, like ceramic and GRP, CF etc. Also use to cut up rubber tyres where they have to grind through the steel cords and rubber at same time.
I know they're?made in 1/2" wide as continuous grit, segmented grit (where grit is plated to the blade in segments with uncoated but full blade width sections between) or gulleted whether there's a gullet between the coated segments. Don't know about other blade widths but expect they're probably available too.
I don't think there are different grit sizes, but the continuous, segmented and gulleted are increasing aggressiveness?of cut,? so act like increasing coarseness TPI on toothed blades.
Hope that helps - jv

Hi Guys
There's surely some of U learned and experienced Folks out here who would be able to recommend a Type and Source for blades to cut CARBON FIBRE.? We do have a large Vertical Metal Cutting Bandsaw whose Blades are literally destroyed whilst Cutting this difficult material.
Would immensely appreciate some input from U Gents
