Saw Models for Ferrous and Non-Ferrous Cutting

Pedrazzoli offers saw models for both ferrous and non-ferrous cutting applications. Whether your shop cuts steel, stainless steel, aluminum, brass or copper, CML USA can help select a suitable machine and cutting setup for your material, section size and production needs.

  • Ferrous materials: steel and stainless steel require a suitable blade, cutting speed, feed rate and coolant or lubrication strategy for the alloy and section.
  • Non-ferrous materials: aluminum, brass and copper require material-specific blade geometry, cutting conditions and secure workholding. A setup chosen for steel is not automatically the right choice for aluminum.

Material capability varies by model and configuration; not every saw is intended for every metal. Confirm the machine’s approved application, blade, speed range, capacity and lubrication requirements before ordering. Tell us your alloy, tube wall thickness or solid-stock dimensions, cut angle and expected daily volume so we can recommend the right solution.

Ask CML USA to recommend a saw for your material.

The range includes machines for tube, pipe and profiles; select the blade, cutting capacity and automation for your material.

What Is a Cold Saw for Metal?

A cold saw for metal uses a toothed circular blade to shear off chips rather than grind through stock with an abrasive wheel. Conventional industrial steel-cutting cold saws combine comparatively low blade speed, cutting torque and rigid workholding. Appropriate coolant or lubrication helps manage heat, clear chips and support blade life. Much of the cutting heat leaves with the chips, but the blade, chips and workpiece can still be hot.

Why choose one? For suitable tube, pipe, profiles and bar, a correctly selected and maintained cold saw can deliver square, repeatable cuts with a smooth finish and minimal burr, reducing downstream cleanup. Suitable solid HSS blades can often be professionally resharpened. These benefits depend on material, blade, feed, clamping and machine condition—not simply the saw name.

Which blade and speed? HSS and carbide-tipped blades are application-specific, not interchangeable upgrades. Do not apply one generic RPM range to steel, stainless steel and aluminum. Compare the Super Brown models for appropriate ferrous applications and the Perris range for suitable high-speed non-ferrous cutting. Read our cold saw operation and tube-preparation guide for heat, coolant, blade-service and safe-handling considerations.

Manual, semi-automatic or automatic? Manual cold saws give the operator direct control of the cutting head. Semi-automatic saws use controlled head movement and clamping. Automatic saws add material feeding for repeat cuts. Compare the models below, and read our Cold Saw vs. Band Saw guide if you are choosing between cutting processes.

Power options: Pedrazzoli’s cold saw range includes single-phase and three-phase electrical configurations, depending on the model. Tell us what electrical service your shop has when requesting a quote. Confirm the voltage and phase for the exact machine.

Key Benefits of Cold Saws for Metal Cutting

  • Clean, accurate cuts with less finishing: A properly selected blade and well-supported workpiece can produce a smooth cut with minimal burr. This can reduce secondary cleanup, but inspect each cut and deburr where needed. Chamfering or weld-edge preparation may still be required by the part drawing.
  • Less heat and fewer sparks than abrasive cutting: A toothed cold-saw blade removes chips rather than grinding through the stock. With correct cutting conditions, this generally reduces heat discoloration and the shower of sparks associated with an abrasive wheel. It is not a guarantee of zero sparks, zero heat or silent operation.
  • Efficient preparation for the next operation: Much of the cutting heat leaves with the chips, helping keep the workpiece relatively cool. Consistent blank lengths and clean reference ends support welding, assembly and tube-bending preparation. Check temperature and sharp edges before handling; do not assume a freshly cut part or chip is safe to touch.
  • Straight and miter cutting: Depending on the model, head or vise adjustment allows angled cuts for frames and fabricated assemblies. Verify left- and right-hand angle limits and the capacity at your actual angle; not every machine cuts 45 degrees in both directions.

Common Cold Saw Applications

Cold sawing is useful in industrial manufacturing, welding preparation, general fabrication and automotive repair or custom fabrication shops. Typical applications include:

  • Steel pipe and tubing: Preparing square, rectangular and round tube blanks for welded structures, handrails and bending.
  • Structural sections and solid bar: Cutting angle, channel and bar stock when the selected saw has the appropriate material rating, capacity and secure workholding. A published tube capacity is not automatically the machine’s solid-bar capacity.
  • Aluminum and other non-ferrous materials: Preparing profiles and components with a suitable machine, blade, speed and lubrication. Aluminum, copper and brass need application-specific selection; do not assume one steel-cutting setup suits them all. Review the Perris 350 SA and  Perris 350 AP for aluminum applications and confirm other alloys with CML USA.

For mandrel-bending blanks, inspect and deburr the inside and outside edges and remove loose chips before loading the tube. See our cold saw advantages and tube preparation guide. To match a saw to your work, send CML USA your material, section dimensions, cut angle and required daily quantity.

Choose a Cold Saw by Material

Steel and other ferrous material

Start with the Super Brown models above. Choose manual operation for varied jobs, a semi-automatic cycle for controlled cutting and clamping, or an automatic step feeder for repeated cut lengths.

For steel fabrication using hydraulic upcut sawing, compare the HB 450 SA ferrous metal upcut cold saw for steel tube, pipe and profiles. It offers vertical hydraulic clamping, a 450 mm blade and a catalog straight-cut round capacity of 5.9 inches. Confirm material, wall thickness and miter capacity for your job.

Aluminum and non-ferrous profiles

Compare the Perris 350 SA semi-automatic aluminum saw and Perris 350 AP automatic aluminum saw with step feeder. These high-speed machines use a different cutting approach from low-speed ferrous sawing.

A long-established brand for quality production

IBP Pedrazzoli was founded in 1948. Today, the Super Brown line offers manual, semi-automatic and automatic cold saws for fabrication and production, backed by CML USA sales, application guidance and support in Davenport, Iowa.

Backed by CML USA’s U.S.-based application guidance, parts and service support for your Pedrazzoli cold saw.

A competitive alternative to major industrial cold-saw brands: compare the specified machine, workholding, automation and support—not only the initial purchase price. Choose the configuration that supports your cut-quality requirements and production workflow.

Automatic Material Feeding for Repeat Cold Saw Cuts

Pair the Super Brown 350/60 SA semi-automatic cold saw with the optional PD100 automatic feeder to reduce repeated measuring and manual stock positioning. Enter the required cut lengths and use programmed feeding to position material for repeat cuts.

Pedrazzoli Super Brown 350/60 SA cold saw with optional PD100 automatic feeder, controller and roller conveyor
Super Brown 350/60 SA shown with the optional PD100 automatic feed system. The feeder and associated material-handling equipment are quoted separately from the base saw.

Program the length. Let the automatic feeder position the material.

  • Automatic positioning: a DC servo motor and rack-and-pinion drive move the material; linear encoder feedback verifies positioning.
  • Less repetitive measuring: programmed lengths reduce the need to measure and mark stock between each cut.
  • Choose the table length: the catalog lists 10-foot and 20-foot feed-table options, with exit-side roller supports available separately.
  • Match the complete system to the job: confirm material support, clamping, saw integration, cut lengths and operating sequence with CML USA. Automatic feeding does not mean unattended material loading.

Another automatic option: the Super Brown 350 AP includes a step feeder for automatic stock positioning and repeat cutting. Compare the AP configuration with the 350/60 SA plus optional PD100 to select the arrangement that fits your parts and production.

Super Brown features that support the cutting process

The August 2026 catalog lists 15–90 RPM variable blade speed for the Super Brown 350/60 MRM, 350/60 SA and 350 AP. On the 350/60 SA, adjustable pneumatic downfeed and return, pneumatic workholding with an anti-burr device, and coolant equipment help support controlled cutting with minimal secondary cleanup. Select blade speed, tooth pitch and feed to suit the material and section; check each cut for burrs rather than assuming it needs no deburring.

Frequently Asked Questions

A metal cold saw uses a toothed circular blade rather than an abrasive wheel. Appropriate cutting speed, blade selection, coolant and workholding can produce a clean cut with less burr and heat discoloration. An abrasive chop saw uses a consumable abrasive wheel; compare cut finish, blade or wheel cost, and any secondary finishing for your work.

Choose by material, section size, cut finish and production volume. Read the cold saw vs. band saw comparison before selecting a cutting process. See our bandsaws – or ask us with your typical part sizes.

Yes, on suitably equipped models. Many metal-cutting circular saws offer 45-degree miter settings, but the available angles, left/right directions and adjustment mechanism vary. Do not assume every model swivels 45 degrees both ways. Cutting capacity also changes with the angle and section shape. Check the model-specific capacity chart and confirm your workpiece with CML USA before ordering.

Blades and spare parts are stocked in Davenport, Iowa. Blade sharpening is available.

A correctly set up cold saw can produce clean cuts with very little burr, reducing secondary finishing. Burr-free cutting is not guaranteed: material, blade condition, tooth selection, feed and clamping all affect the result. Inspect cut edges and deburr as required. Chamfering or weld preparation specified on the drawing remains a separate requirement.

Compared with abrasive-wheel cutting, properly controlled cold sawing generally produces fewer sparks and less heat discoloration. It does not eliminate heat, flying chips or noise. Use the machine’s guards and required eye and hearing protection, and follow its operating instructions. Do not treat a cold saw as spark-free equipment for use around flammable materials.

Cold sawing carries much of the cutting heat away in the chips, so the stock can remain relatively cool compared with abrasive cutting. That does not guarantee safe immediate handling. Wait until the blade has stopped and follow the machine’s safe unloading procedure. Check for heat and sharp edges; use the prescribed handling equipment and never reach near a moving blade or clear chips by hand.

Depending on the machine and setup, applications include steel pipe, round and square tubing, angle, channel and solid bar, as well as suitable non-ferrous materials such as aluminum, copper and brass. Match blade type, cutting speed, tooth pitch, coolant or lubrication and clamping to the alloy and section. High-speed aluminum machines and low-speed ferrous cold saws are not interchangeable setups. Ask CML USA to confirm suitability and capacity for your exact stock.
