A new generation of HSS advanced saw blades

incorporate the best features of the most renowned Kinkelder coatings. Due to the combination of a low friction coefficient and high temperature resistance, high cut- ting speeds and feeds can be achieved. The multi-layer 2.0 coating has been developed especially for cutting steel. The NX coating has been specifically designed for cutting stainless steel, but can also be used for dedicated steel cutting applications. For relevant applications, a re-coating programme is available. The X-treme series is the new top range of Kinkelder HSS saw blades. Optimised

Dutch industrial saw blade manufacturer Kinkelder has introduced its new- generation HSS Advanced series, which it claims offers a performance level that surpasses existing HSS products in many applications. Over the past 50 years, Kinkelder has gained experience in producing and developing HSS circular saw blades. The new HSS Advanced series makes use of new precision grinding machines, newly developed PVD coating concepts and new insights gained in R&D projects. Three distinct grinding concepts – Fusion, Power and X-treme – each serve specific market demands for high pro- duction output, optimised surface finish and low cost per cut. Two new PVD coatings have been developed that
