Key Differences
· Material: Most Z-series blades are tungsten carbide for durability, except the Z6 which is steel for mower use.
· Cutting Angle: Varies from 45° (Z46) to 60° (Z44, Z101), affecting cut aggressiveness and material suitability.
· Cutting Depth: Ranges from about 4.5 mm (Z83) to 20 mm (Z46), indicating suitability for different material thicknesses.
· Design: Some blades are double-edged (Z10, Z44), some asymmetric for specialized cuts (Z101, Z83).
· Application: Z6 is for lawn mowers, others are industrial oscillating blades for digital cutters handling materials like cardboard, PVC, fabrics, foam, and composites.
