2. Abrasive saw - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abrasive_saw

   An abrasive saw, also known as a cut-off saw or chop saw, is a circular saw (a kind of power tool) which is typically used to cut hard materials, such as metals, tile, and concrete. The cutting action is performed by an abrasive disc, similar to a thin grinding wheel. Technically speaking this is not a saw, as it does not use regularly shaped ...

3. Disc cutter - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Disc_cutter

   A cutoff saw is used for cutting larger items, like heavy metal stock, metal studs, and for cutting large metal pipe. The cutting discs for this tool are usually 10 or 12 inches in diameter, with a composition like that of the smaller wheels mentioned above. When cutting heavy materials the cutting discs may require lubrication or coolant to ...

4. Cold saw - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cold_saw

   Cold saw blades are used to cut metal using a relatively slow rotational speed, usually less than 5000 surface feet per minute (SFM) (25 m/s), and a high chip load per tooth, usually between .001"–.003" (0.025–0.08 mm) per tooth. These blades are driven by a high power motor and high-torque gear reduction unit or an AC vector drive.

5. Miter saw - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Miter_saw

   A motorized miter saw. A miter saw or mitre saw is a saw used to make accurate crosscuts and miters in a workpiece by positioning a mounted blade onto a board. A miter saw in its earliest form was composed of a back saw in a miter box, but in modern implementation consists of a powered circular saw that can be positioned at a variety of angles and lowered onto a board positioned against a ...

7. Circular saw - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Circular_saw

   Circular saw with a diamond blade for cutting asphalt and concrete. The rotary motion of a circular saw lends itself to cutting hard materials like concrete, asphalt, metal, tile, brick, and stone with an abrasive saw such as a tile saw. Diamond blades and cut off wheels are commonly used in these applications.
