For years it was thought nothing would ever be able to easily cut through a material as strong and intimidating as metal. There were methods of working with metal to craft large metal creations such as ships and buildings, but nothing really worked well in small shops that dealt with smaller metal cuttings.
With the exception of being melted, there were no simple ways of breaking down metal to make it easier to work with.
This all changed in the 1980s when a cutting company named Jepson developed machines called dry cutters. Dry cutters were specially made for small metal cutting jobs that involved metal pieces less than ¼ inches thick. Most of the jobs that are considered small metal cutting involve metal piping such as copper and brass, angle iron, metal studs and certain conduits. With Jepson leading the way, the invention of dry cutters made cutting metal for smaller projects easier than it had ever been before.
Jepson offers many different variations of dry cutters. Jepson Dry Cutters range from portable hand-held dry cutters to ones mounted on a stand. Two of the most popular Jepson dry cutters are the 8219 Hand Dry Cutters and the 9314-T2 Dry Cutters.
Since there are not many portable dry cutters on the market, Jepson gives its customers a selection not many other cutting manufacturers can offer with the 8219 Hand Dry Cutters. Since dry cutters are normally mounted on stands, the metal that needs to be cut usually has to be dragged over to the machine. If the metal is large or awkwardly shaped, this can be a hassle for the person doing the cutting. With portable dry cutters, the person can take the machine to the metal. The Hand Dry Cutters feature 2-5/8 inch cutting depths, are ergonomically designed for better handling, have magnesium housing for lightweight carrying, and Cermet tipped saw blades. Because of the danger that can come with carrying around dry cutters, these models also comes with lock-off switch when it is not being operated.
The 14-inch 9314-T2 Dry Cutters are one of the newest dry cutters Jepson offers. Adding two more inches to the customary 12-inch model, these dry cutters give even more power to the impact that goes into cutting metal. They also gives more capacity for the cutting sizes being put into the machine; a real benefit for those customers who had trouble with bigger projects in the past. These dry cutters come equipped with 58-tooth cutter blades, a jig plate set, 115V power inputs and are painted in the traditional blue and yellow Jepson colors.
Without dry cutters, small metal cutting jobs would almost be impossible to complete in a short time. Dry cutters also make it possible for the do-it-yourself customer to cut metal in the comfort of their own home, a feat that was probably thought impossible years ago. One of the companies that make dry cutting possible is Jepson. With their wide variety of dry cutters and wet cutters, they should be one of the first places customers look to for their dry or wet cutting needs.
