What Is a Crosscut Saw?

A crosscut saw cuts across the grain to bring long lengths of timber down to size. In a workshop that usually means a radial arm saw, where the blade is pulled across timber held against a fence. Crosscutting is often the first step in a job, and getting it square and to length saves time at every machine after it. Once timber is cut to length, it usually goes to a surface planer next.

Crosscut Saws We Supply

The Stromab-Minimax SR 650 radial arm saws come with 350mm or 400mm blades. They’re built for joinery shops and timber yards that cut to length every day, and they take up little floor space against a wall. For panel production, the SCM Gabbiani CFX gives fast, accurate cross cuts on panels.

Choosing a Crosscut Saw

Look at the widest and thickest timber you cut, because that sets the blade size you need. A 400mm blade cuts deeper than a 350mm one. If you handle long lengths, add roller tables on the infeed and outfeed sides, and plan dust extraction for the saw from the start.

To cut timber along the grain rather than across it, see our rip saws.
