The Vortex HSS Slitting Saw – Fine Pitch (Imperial) is a precision cutting tool built for machinists who demand clean, repeatable slots and tight tolerances. With a 5" diameter, 5/64" blade thickness, 1" bore, and 128 teeth, this saw delivers accurate slotting performance across a range of metals.

• Diameter: 5 inches
• Teeth: 128-teeth fine-pitch design for smooth, precise cuts
• Blade thickness: 5/64 inch
• Bore: 1 inch for compatibility with standard milling setups
• Material: High-Speed Steel (HSS) for durability and wear resistance
• Grounding: Hollow ground to the bore to maximize side clearance and maintain a precise kerf
• Finish: Bright, premium finish suitable for DIN stock applications

Benefits: The hollow-ground bore minimizes friction and prevents excessive rubbing during heavy slotting, helping maintain dimensional accuracy and extend tool life. The fine-pitch 128-teeth configuration yields clean edges with reduced burr and chatter, making it ideal for narrow slots, keyway cuts, and precise trimming in steel, aluminum, and other metals. With a strict kerf tolerance of +/- 0.001", you can expect consistent slot widths across multiple passes, supporting reliable fits in fixtures, jigs, and assemblies. This Vortex HSS slitting saw is a dependable choice for workshops needing high-quality, repeatable results in demanding milling tasks.
