Description
Overview
The JET CS-315 is a 315mm manual cold saw built for ferrous work, sized for machine shops and fabrication crews cutting steel, stainless, and tough alloys. It runs a 2 HP, 230V three-phase motor on a heavy cast iron frame.
Cold sawing gives a clean, burr-free cut with no heat discoloration, so stock comes off the saw ready for welding or machining. A blade drive reduction gearbox runs in an oil bath for durability, and a flood coolant system with a 1-1/3 gallon reservoir and flow control feeds the blade to extend its life.
Key Features
- 315mm ferrous capacity - a 12 inch blade for steel, stainless, and tough-to-cut alloys.
- Oil-bath reduction gearbox - the blade drive runs in an oil bath, with a hardened worm shaft and bronze worm wheel transmitting torque to the blade.
- Flood coolant system - a 1-1/3 gallon reservoir and pump with flow control feeds coolant at the cut to extend blade life.
- Cam-action vise - quick clamping with an adjustable gib and material support bar for burr-free cuts.
- Mitering to 45 degrees - quick tension and release stops at 45 right and 45 left.
- Heavy cast iron frame - a stable base with easy-access storage for a steady cutting platform.
