Altitude Height Safety is a brand new company within the JSP Group
M
any professions, work environments and tasks involve activity above or even below ground level, meaning workers are exposed to the risk of falling a distance liable to cause injury – or even death. As well as a moral obligation to ensure those workers’ safety, employers must comply with myriad legal duties with regard to work at height. Training is a crucial part of compliance, as employers must understand how to plan and manage work at height safely so that workers can carry it out without incurring harm to themselves, or causing it to others.
Altitude™ Height Safety – a
brand new company within the JSP Group – is dedicated to providing quality height safety and rescue training for all industry sectors. The company recently launched an initial programme of five courses covering the main elements of working at height for employers and their workers.

www.jspgroup.co.uk Starrett hole saws go deeper and faster
wo new bi-metal hole saws that promise significant performance gains are now available from Starrett.
T Fast Cut and Deep
Cut will replace Constant Pitch and Dual Pitch respectively. The Fast Cut hole saw combines a new tooth profile and base material, with enhanced heat and wear resistance, to provide a smoother, faster cut on a wide range of materials. It is especially suited to cutting stainless and mild steel sheet, and will also cut through tubes with wall thicknesses up to 3 mm.
By changing the tooth pitch from 6 to 5.5 TPI,
Starrett’s engineering team has created enough space to dramatically improve the profile of the teeth to enhance the cutting action, and also increase the gullet to clear away the chips more effectively. This also results in a noticeably smoother cut. “The change from 6 TPI to 5.5 TPI does not sound much, however it is a fractional
change that makes a big difference to the geometric profile of the teeth we can generate,” explains Marketing Manager, John Cove. Changing the bi-metal base material specification has also enhanced cutting efficiency for the customer. Moving to a new material specification with 8 per cent cobalt has increased the saws resistance to both wear and elevated heat during use. John Cove says: “We know that our previous base material is a great bi-metal material: if it is run at the speeds and feeds we recommend. However, the problem is in the real world everyone runs the saw much quicker and if the blade gets hot it can wear quickly. Our new bi-metal material provides a much greater tolerance to wear under elevated heat generating situations.”
Compared to the previous Constant Pitch hole
saw, Fast Cut can operate up to 30 per cent quicker and increases edge life by up to 20 per cent, depending on the application and cutting conditions. The Deep Cut saw combines the proven tooth form and set from the previous Dual Pitch product with a new high cobalt material, for enhanced heat and wear resistance. It offers the same 20 per cent increase in cutting life under the right conditions. Deep Cut also features an increased hole saw depth of 51 mm, up from 41 mm, and is said to be ideal for cutting metal more than 3 mm thick, tubes with a wall thickness of greater than 3 mm and wood up to 51 mm.
