Pipe Cutting

Shengao Pipe Cutting Blades are engineered from premium materials to ensure maximum durability and cutting performance in demanding industrial applications:

• High-Speed Steel (HSS): M2, M35, and M42 grades for enhanced wear resistance and precision cutting on stainless steel, carbon steel, and alloy pipes
• Tungsten Carbide: Extreme hardness (HRC 85-92) and superior wear resistance for cutting abrasive materials and extended service life
• Tool Steel & D2 Alloy: High-carbon, high-chromium compositions for exceptional hardness and edge retention in general-purpose pipe cutting
• Specialized Coatings: TiN, TiCN, and TiAlN coatings applied via PVD/CVD for enhanced heat resistance (up to 500°C), reduced friction, and corrosion protection

Each material undergoes specialized heat treatment (HRC 58-65+) and precision grinding processes to achieve optimal hardness while maintaining toughness for various pipe materials including copper, aluminum, and stainless steel.

Selecting the appropriate pipe cutting blade depends on several critical factors specific to your operational requirements:

1. Pipe Material & Hardness: Different metals (stainless steel, carbon steel, copper, aluminum, alloys) require specific blade compositions and hardness levels
2. Pipe Diameter & Wall Thickness: Thicker materials and larger diameters require blades with specialized geometries and increased durability
3. Production Speed & Volume: High-speed applications need blades with specialized coatings (TiN, TiAlN) and tooth geometry for efficient continuous operation
4. Cutting Mechanism Compatibility: Ensure blade compatibility with your cutting equipment (orbital systems, CNC machines, guillotine cutters, handheld tools)
5. Cut Quality Requirements: Fine-cut applications require precision-ground blades with optimal clearance angles (1-5°) and rake angles (5-15°) for burr-free results

Our technical team can provide customized recommendations based on your specific pipe characteristics, production requirements, and machine specifications.

Proper maintenance extends blade life and ensures optimal cutting performance in pipe processing applications:

• Regular Inspection: Check edges for nicks, cracks, or dulling; verify blade alignment and parallelism within ±0.02mm before each use
• Consistent Cleaning: Remove metal debris and residue after each use to prevent buildup and corrosion, especially when cutting different pipe materials
• Periodic Sharpening: Use CNC-controlled grinders for consistent edge geometry; typically 3-5 regrinds possible before replacement depending on usage
• Proper Storage: Coat blades in rust inhibitor when stored; avoid dropping or impacting blades to prevent microcracks and edge damage
• Alignment Verification: Ensure proper blade overlap (0.5-2mm) and minimal backlash to prevent material jamming and ensure clean cuts

Shengao offers professional blade sharpening services and provides detailed maintenance guides with every purchase to maximize your investment.
