Hello -

We'll be cutting thin wall (16G, .062") 304 stainless steel tubing - 1"
x 2" down to 5/8" square. We've got a new Kaltenbach KKS 400E. With
the stock blades (16"), the saw cuts at +/- 50 surface feet per minute.
We'll be atomizing our coolant. Our primary objective is to minimize
or eliminate burr.


How do you get 5/8" square out of 1x2 16 GA tube?


I was just wondering about that too ....
