Selecting the appropriate welding rods is crucial when repairing stellite-tipped blades. While silver alloy rods simplify the welding process for intricate tooth designs, cobalt-based stellite rods are our top recommendation for ensuring a robust bond with minimal hardness reduction.

When a stellite blade eventually shows signs of wear, you face a choice: invest in a new blade or weld new stellite teeth onto the existing one. The latter is not only more economical but also quicker. We supply stellite saw teeth to rejuvenate your blade's performance.

For occasional cuts or less frequent usage, carbide-tipped blades might offer a more cost-effective solution without compromising on longevity. Their corrosion-resistant edge ensures a high-quality cut, especially in engineered boards like plywood.

Contrary to popular belief, stellite-tipped blades are not more prone to fracturing upon encountering hidden nails or knots in reclaimed wood. Stellite's cobalt-chromium matrix structure imparts exceptional impact resistance, making these blades more resilient than tungsten carbide, especially in abrasive conditions. This ensures that stellite-tipped blades remain reliable, even when working with potentially contaminated recycled stocks. Our specialized stellite alloy formulation further enhances blade longevity by preventing chipping while maintaining sharpness.

For woodworking shops handling large volumes, stellite-tipped blades emerge as the top choice, especially when ripping dense hardwoods. Comprising cobalt, chromium, and tungsten, Stellite offers a durable edge that ensures smooth cuts. Its low-friction surface facilitates swift feed rates, even through hardwoods like oak or walnut, without the risk of overheating.
