Thurston supplies saw
blanks to many saw manufacturers who prefer to grind their own teeth but do not
have the capabilities to manufacture their own blanks. We have also found that
saw manufacturers who are capable of producing the entire saw blade may find it
much more economical to purchase the saw blades from Thurston.
Saw
blanks can be supplied ground with clearance to the holes or hubs. We can also
supply the blanks flat and parallel. Please see the above
illustration.
All of our manufacturing processes are performed in-house,
including heat treatment. We have the capabilities of grinding blanks as low as
.003 thick with tolerances as close as ±.0001. We have experienced
sawsmiths who handstraighten every saw product we manufacture.
Thurston
was founded in 1883, thus making us one of the oldest and experienced saw
manufacturers in the world. Please let our years of experience help you with
your saw product and circular knife needs.
