Sitebuddyz launches CladBlades specialist saw range

Sitebuddyz today launches its range of specialist saw blades for the cladding and siding sector.

The CladBlades range is specifically designed for cladding jobs, where standard blades often struggle to handle popular materials such as fibre cement weatherboards.

Fewer blunt or broken blades

The CladeBlades range helps professional cladding installers and DIY enthusiasts get the clean cuts needed to create a superior finish. And the blades are designed to last far longer than standard blades, meaning fewer costly blunt or broken blade changes which hold up jobs.

Traditional grinder or circular saws blades are often not up to the job: the discs wear down fast, cut slowly, and reduce in diameter. Similarly, traditional jigsaw blades often snap or quickly go blunt.

The CladBlades range features three types of blade, which all fit standard power tools.

The circular/chop-saw and angle grinder CladBlades all have teeth made from Polycrystalline Diamond, giving 60% longer life than standard TCT Saw-blades. They feature innovative anti-vibration slots to improve cut finish and reduce resonance and are available in a variety of sizes.

The 100mm jigsaw Cladblades are available as packs of three and have exceptional durability. They are made from tungsten carbide - the hardest metal - to give superior strength and impact resistance. They are ideal for making intricate cuts to boards and suitable for use on all types of fibre cement boards.

The CladBlades launch comes as demand for more durable cladding is booming around the world, with customers attracted to both the aesthetic look and protective qualities of artificial weatherboard brands like Cedral, James Hardy and NeoTimber.

James Gibbens, founder of Sitebuddyz, comments:

“For years I’ve struggled to get the clean cuts needed to finish jobs to the really high standard I’m always aiming for. Most standard blades on the market can’t handle the tougher materials and either snap, go blunt really quickly, or produce an uneven cut that makes joining boards together neatly problematic.

"That’s why I set about designing this range of blades, using the highest quality materials and some innovations. The feedback from customers who’ve been trialling them has been superb. Hopefully we’ll see fewer blunt blades and less wastage of boards as a result."

The CladBlades range is available to purchase now at www.sitebuddyz.com, with a range of sizes stocked.
