Our development of the Cougar XX Chrome saw is a combination of the Cougar XX proprietary heat treatment and chroming of the saw plate. This combination allows the saw to retain tension for longer periods of time while slowing the progression of gullet and plate wear, with the added benefit of between board tolerance improvements.

Thermex® is a thermal-mechanical process that increases the elasticity of the saw steel, thereby increasing the saw’s tension retention and locking in the saw’s original shape – drastically reducing benching.  When combined with our proprietary hard chrome coating, the result is a blade that delivers consistent quality performance for the entire run, and also delivers more runs.
