What Our Customers Are Saying
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ "The Gold Standard for Body Shops"
"I've used many air saws in my 20 years as a panel beater, but nothing beats the SI-4700B. It’s light, fast, and doesn't rattle your teeth out. The Japanese build quality is obvious from the first cut." — Mark D., Automotive Fabricator
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ "Worth Every Penny."
"You can buy a cheaper saw, but you'll buy it three times before this one even needs a drop of oil. The precision on curves is unmatched." — Steve G., Metal Fabricator
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q: Can this saw cut through stainless steel?
A: Yes. While optimized for 3mm mild steel, with the correct high-quality Bi-Metal blade, it can efficiently cut through stainless steel and aluminum panels.
Q: Does it come with blades?
A: Yes, the SI-4700B typically includes a starter set of blades, but we recommend stocking up on Shinano Genuine Blades for the best performance.
Q: What is the recommended air pressure?
A: For optimal performance and tool longevity, operate at 90 PSI (6.2 bar).
Q: How do I maintain this tool?
A: Being a precision Japanese tool, it requires daily oiling. Just 2-3 drops of pneumatic tool oil in the air inlet before use will keep it running for a decade.
