 | | SPEAR & JACKSON’S PREDATORTM LAMINATE SAW SHARPENS UP ITS ACT |  | | Spear & Jackson Group | | 29/08/2007 | | | The PredatorTM Laminate Saw from Spear & Jackson – the UK’s leading manufacturer of builders’ tools – is now better equipped than ever to deliver higher performance, and longer lasting service, thanks to an ingenious new teeth configuration.
The original laminate saw in the Predator range was developed to provide significant performance advantages over a standard woodsaw when cutting laminate, a material that is acknowledged to be very wearing on teeth, curtailing product life dramatically. Yet the smooth cutting action and extra fine finish that was the hallmark of the original Predator laminate saw has now been augmented by tripling the lifetime of the teeth, without compromising on the existing cutting performance and finish. The number of teeth remains at 14 Points per Inch (ppi). The Predator laminate saw already boasted a handy 20% advantage over its rivals – and the huge increase in the durability of the new teeth configuration means that 20% advantage is now a whole lot bigger.
Designed for precision applications, the saw is used typically where a clean, extra fine finish is required on items such as laminate flooring, Formica work tops and beading. As with all the PredatorTM range, it incorporates a number of advanced features, including a rigid 0.91mm blade which minimizes ‘whip’ and vibration when in use, a deeper gullet for increased material removal and a comfort handle, incorporating Suregrip® ergonomic soft-feel technology. Suregrip® cushions the user’s hand – giving a better feel and reducing fatigue – and, with its finger guide, improves cutting accuracy as well as comfort.
Spear & Jackson’s PredatorTM range comprises six models and provides a complete saw range for all purposes, from first and second fix applications through to cutting PVC-U and laminate. All saws are colour coded according to application – the laminate model comes in a distinctive purple livery – making them easy to differentiate from their separately tasked stablemates. |  |
