What We Offer

Brazed Tooling

Connecticut Saw & Tool offers brazed carbide tools for routers, shapers, moulders, saws, and all other types of machinery. Carbide tipped tooling is often the type of tooling our customers are most familiar with. Although it lacks the profile repeatability and long service life of PCD tipped tools – carbide tipped tooling offers its own benefits and has its place in almost every shop:

  • Lower initial cost compared to insert or PCD tipped tools
  • Shorter lead times to manufacture compared to insert or PCD tipped tools
  • Easily resharpened by all properly equipped grinding facilities
  • Most often used for short runs or one time projects
  • Can be retipped if worn out or damaged

Diamond Tooling

Connecticut Saw & Tool oversees the design and production of custom tailored PCD tooling solutions for routers, shapers, tenoners, moulders, edgebanders and all other types of machinery. By utilizing our hands on experience with our vast network of world class manufacturing partners we offer our customers a comprehensive PCD tooling program.

PCD is Polycrystalline Diamond – man made diamond particles bonded to a carbide substrate that can be brazed onto a cutting tool. PCD is incredibly wear resistant allowing the user 30 – 100x the life of carbide tipped tools. Although there is a larger upfront investment, under the right conditions PCD tools are the most economical choice because of its extremely long service life – allowing the tool to stay on the machine longer, reducing set up times and decreasing down time.

We will make sure you stay on budget, on schedule and achieve superior cut quality with our PCD tool solutions.
