A Practical, Versatile Metal Cutting Saw
A Panasonic EY3530 Metal Cutting Saw has been seen as very cute, but doesn't portray its usefulness on a real life job. This is very wrong. There are cordless metal cutting saws used in most trades that you can see at any job.
So, what is a metal cutting saw?
It's simply a cordless circular saw that runs a carbide-tipped metal blade at the rpm you choose. Typically these saws have a guard to catch the metal shavings. This type of saw is designed to cut cleanly through mild steel. I have a great story about a sales rep who went into a customer's office, pulled out his cordless metal saw and cut off a piece of threaded rod, then threaded a nut on -- so fast that the customer didn't have time to throw him out. This particular sales rep sold many of these tools with his unique approach.
So what materials can cordless metal cutting saws work on?
Any mild steel, like threading rod, unit-stud, metal siding, EMT pipe, and duct work can be cut by cordless metal cutting saws. You can also purchase blades for aluminum. It is not recommended, but some people have used them on copper. The most common thing these saws are used on threading rod, strut, and EMT pipe. You will get a better cut if you get a blade with more teeth if you are cutting thin metals.
Who manufactures metal cutting saws?
You can get saws like these from DeWalt, Milwaukee, and Makita, but the Panasonic EY3530 is the most popular saw. If you already have a saw, but want to improve your cut, Tenyru sells the best carbide tipped blades for almost any saw. I feel that it is important to have a saw that is specific for the work you are doing, but if you just want to get a carbide blade your saw should be okay. Go ahead and try them out.
You can get a 30-day guaranteed return from a lot of cordless power tool manufacturers. I've given this type of offer to my customers, but as soon as they realize the quality of the tool they're getting, none of the tools come back to me. The Panasonic EY3530 Metal Cutting Saw is truly worth a try.
