Evolution Heavy Duty Metal Cutting Power Tools Made for Metalworking

KBC Tools & Machinery is pleased to announce that it is now carrying  and stocking the Evolution line of heavy duty Metal Cutting Power Tools made especially for metalworking in both Canada and The US and featuring chop saws.

Now you can cut through mild steel up to 4 times faster, without heat build up or burrs…and less secondary re-work with KBC and Evolution.

KBC stocks Evolutions’ 14” and 15” Metal Cutting Chop Saws, (7.1/4” models are also available),  with a no load speed of 1550 RPM, a high torque motor, a cast aluminum base with integrated wear plate and bench mounting holes. They also have a quick release vise with square threaded rod for fast and secure clamping and 0-45 degree miter capacity and an attachable V shape block for clamping of round and square tube.  These Metal Cutting Chop Saws come complete with a 10 ft. power chord, base, clamp, and a blade that has fully hardened body plates with tungsten carbide teeth that generate almost no heat, sparks, or burrs – that keeps your teeth sharper for longer resulting in more cuts and a great workable finish.

Cutting capacity for the 15” Chop Saw is 5”x5” at 90 degrees, 3.1/2”x3.1/2” at 45 degrees, 5.7/8” round at 90 degrees, and 5”round at 45 degrees.

These Metal Cutting Chop Saws can go anywhere due to their compact design, head lock down pin, and carrying handle.  Plus, they have an easy to clean chip collection tray and a quick change blade with integrated tool storage.  The ambidextrous trigger means that they are easy to use for both right and left handed workers.  Both models come complete with a 14” for Mild Steel blade with 66 teeth and a limited 3 year warranty.

14” Blades  are also available for the following materials: Stainless Steel with 90 teeth, Aluminum Steel with 80 teeth, Multi Material with 36 teeth.  A 15” blade is available for Mild Steel with 70 teeth.

Related Glossary Terms

  • metalworking

    metalworking

    Any manufacturing process in which metal is processed or machined such that the workpiece is given a new shape. Broadly defined, the term includes processes such as design and layout, heat-treating, material handling and inspection.

  • sawing machine ( saw)

    sawing machine ( saw)

    Machine designed to use a serrated-tooth blade to cut metal or other material. Comes in a wide variety of styles but takes one of four basic forms: hacksaw (a simple, rugged machine that uses a reciprocating motion to part metal or other material); cold or circular saw (powers a circular blade that cuts structural materials); bandsaw (runs an endless band; the two basic types are cutoff and contour band machines, which cut intricate contours and shapes); and abrasive cutoff saw (similar in appearance to the cold saw, but uses an abrasive disc that rotates at high speeds rather than a blade with serrated teeth).

  • tungsten carbide ( WC)

    tungsten carbide ( WC)

    Intermetallic compound consisting of equal parts, by atomic weight, of tungsten and carbon. Sometimes tungsten carbide is used in reference to the cemented tungsten carbide material with cobalt added and/or with titanium carbide or tantalum carbide added. Thus, the tungsten carbide may be used to refer to pure tungsten carbide as well as co-bonded tungsten carbide, which may or may not contain added titanium carbide and/or tantalum carbide.
