Choosing tooth pitch for solid materials

The decisive factors for the choice of tooth pitch are the length of the uninterrupted part of the cut. In the case of solid material it is the diameter of the material, in the case of bundle cutting it is their sum.

Constant tooth pitch

Number of teeth per inch (tpi)	Cutting length (mm)
Number of teeth per inch (tpi)	from	to
18	0	10
14	0	15
10	15	30
6	50	80
4	80	120
3	120	200
2	200	400
1,25	300	800

Variable tooth pitch

Number of teeth per inch (tpi)	Cutting length (mm)
Number of teeth per inch (tpi)	from	to
10-14	0	20
8-12	10	30
6-10	20	50
5-8	30	60
4-6	50	100
3-4	80	170
2,5-3,4	100	220
2-3	150	300
1,8-2,5	180	350
1,7-1,2	250	370
1,4-2	290	550
1,4-1,8	300	650
1,2-1,6	400	750
1,0-1,4	500	1000
0,85-1,15	700	1400
0,75-1,25	700	1400
0,7-1,0	900	2000

Choosing tooth pitch for profiles

When cutting profiles and tubes, the choice of the correct tooth pitch is particularly important. The required toothing depends on the material diameter and wall thickness. If you are cutting two or more profiles side by side, double the wall thickness must be taken into account.

Thin-walled profiles

Wall thickness (mm)	Outer profile diameter (mm)
Wall thickness (mm)	20	40	60	80	100	120	150
2	14	14	14	14	14	14	10-14
3	14	14	14	14	10-14	10-14	8-11, 8-12
4	14	14	10-14	10-14	8-11, 8-12	8-11, 8-12	6-10

6	14	10-14	8-11, 8-12	8-11, 8-12	6-10	6-10	5-7, 5-8
