Jeweler and slitting saws are designed for slotting and grooving thin material in which minimum tooth engagement is desired. Applications include making slits for collets, cutting wire, tubing, sheeting and extrusions. These saws are excellent for being used as a cutoff tool in lathes with live tooling. Parts will have a much smaller tit if not supported and since these saws are thin you can get more pieces per bar. Large number of teeth will give you great metal removal rates and tool life.
