GQ45 Bar Cutting Machine Blade – 83x83x26mm, HRC 50-55

This is the replacement cutting blade for the GQ45 bar cutting machine — 83 × 83 × 26 mm, heat-treated to HRC 50–55. It is the wearing part of the machine: the blade does the cutting, so it dulls with use and is replaced periodically while the machine itself keeps running.

• Bar Cutting Machine GQ45 — the 415 V bench cutter for 6–32 mm TMT bar

The GQ50 uses a different blade — order the GQ50 cutting blade for that machine. Check the size stamped on your existing blade before ordering if you are unsure which machine you have.

What it does and when to replace it

A bar cutter shears rebar between a fixed and a moving blade. Every cut takes a small amount of edge off both, so blades are consumables — they are meant to be replaced, not repaired. Hardening to HRC 50–55 is what keeps the edge holding through repeated cuts on high-tensile TMT bar; softer steel would deform quickly.

Replace the blade when cuts start to leave a ragged or folded bar end rather than a clean shear, when the machine needs noticeably more time or force per cut, or when you can see chipping or rounding on the cutting edge. Running a badly worn blade puts extra load on the motor and clutch, so replacing on time protects the rest of the machine.
