Safety Tips for Using Gas Saw Blades
- Protective Gear: Always wear appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE) such as safety goggles, gloves, and hearing protection. Check out our full line of PPE to keep you safe while using our tools.
- Proper Storage: Store blades in a dry place to prevent moisture damage, which can compromise their integrity.
- Regular Inspection: Before each use, inspect the blade for cracks, chips, or other signs of damage. Cracked and damaged wheels are unsafe for use.
- Secure Mounting: Ensure the blade is securely mounted to the saw and that the machine's guard is in place and functional.
- Use the correct Machine with the correct RPM: This is the most important safety tip on the page…ONLY USE GAS SAW WHEELS ON GAS POWERED SAWS. Using blades without the correct RPM rating will cause the wheel to break apart violently. Alternately, the slower chop saws will not have enough speed to efficiently cut.
