The five tooth forms of the WIKUS program differ
with respect to the rake angle of the cutting teeth and the
root.
• Raker tooth (S) • Hook touth (K) • Skip tooth
(L) • Trapezoidal tooth (T) • Profile tooth
(P) |
|
 |
| |
|
|
|
| |
| Raker tooth (S) |
| |
|
| Rake angle of 0°, suitable for: |
| • |
short-chipping materials |
| • |
steels with high carbon content |
| • |
mainly tool steel and cast iron |
| • |
work pieces with small cross-sections |
| • |
thin-walled profiles | |
|

 |
Raker tooth (S) is available in
constant tooth pitches of 3-32 tpi and in the variable
tooth pitches of 3-4 tpi to 10-14
tpi. |
|
| |
|
|
|
| |
| Hook tooth (K) |
| |
|
| Positive rake angle, suitable for: |
| • |
long-chipping, tough materials |
| • |
mainly non-ferrous metals and steels with a carbon
content < 0.8% |
| • |
structural steels, deep drawing steels, tempered
steels, rust and acid-resistant steels and exotic
alloys |
| • |
large cross-sections | |
|

 |
Hook tooth (K) is available in
constant tooth pitches of 0.75-6 tpi and in the variable
tooth pitches of 0.55-0.75 tpi to 4-6
tpi. |
|
| |
|
|
|
| |
| Skip tooth (L) |
| |
|
| Rake angle of 0°, suitable for: |
| • |
brittle material |
| • |
larger cross-section | |
|

 |
Skip tooth (L) is available in
constant tooth pitches of 2, 3, 4 and 6
tpi. |
|
| |
|
|
|
| |
| Trapezoidal tooth (T) |
| |
|
| Rake angle: positive, for |
| • |
high sawing performance for the greatest of band sawing
demands |
|
|

 |
Trapezoidal tooth (T) is
available in constant tooth pitches of 2 and 3 tpi and
in variable tooth pitches of 0.85-1.15 tpi to 3-4 tpi.
|
|
| |
|
|
|
| |
| Profile tooth (P) |
| |
|
| Rake angle: positive, for |
| • |
hollow profiles |
| • |
angle profiles |
| • |
girders |
| • |
bundle and layer cuts |
| • |
vibration-susceptible sawing
work | |
|

 |
Profile tooth (P) is available
in variable tooth pitches of 2-3 tpi to 4-6
tpi.
