FAQs

Diamond blades have industrial diamonds embedded in the cutting segments — used for cutting hard, abrasive materials (stone, concrete, tile, granite, masonry). The diamonds wear slowly through the abrasive material; bond hardness is matched to the material being cut. TCT (tungsten carbide-tipped) blades have hard carbide teeth — used for cutting wood, plastic, fibreglass, and softer non-ferrous metals (aluminium, brass). Wrong blade on wrong material wears the blade rapidly and can damage the workpiece or tool. The product page lists rated material for every blade.

Battery and tool must match by voltage (18V, 20V Max, 24V, 36V, etc.), by platform (manufacturer and platform generation — most manufacturers have a slide-mount that's unique to their battery platform), and by capacity (in Ah — higher capacity gives longer run-time but adds weight). Within a manufacturer's platform, batteries are usually backwards-compatible (newer batteries fit older tools, and vice versa); cross-platform compatibility (one brand to another) is rare. The product page lists tool compatibility for every replacement battery.

For electrical-installation work in mild-steel cabinet panels and trunking, bi-metal hole saws (bi-metal teeth on a steel body) cover the standard 16-100mm diameters used for cable glands and service openings. For thicker mild-steel section, hole-saw cutting needs more torque and lower speed than the bi-metal types — a step drill or annular-cutter bit gives faster, cleaner holes. For stainless steel, slow speed plus cutting fluid extends bi-metal hole-saw life significantly; annular cutters (rotabroach style) are the trade preference for stainless cabinet work.

Yes. Replacement carbon brushes, motor armatures, gaskets, seals, vanes (for pneumatic tools), bearings, and consumable bits are available for the majority of Draper, SIP, Sealey, and Chicago Pneumatic portable power tools. Search by the model code stamped on the tool body. WhatsApp 07754288583 with the model code and a photograph for older or unusual models.

Portable Power Tools Consumables

Within Portable Power Tool, Portable Power Tools Consumables covers the consumable wear parts and replacement bits used with portable pneumatic and electric power tools — diamond blades, drill bits, hole cutters, cordless tool batteries, drill vices, abrasive consumables, and the supporting parts that turn a portable power tool into a working tool. Parts For Machines supplies trade-grade portable power tool consumables for fleet workshops, on-site service, and trade applications. Within Portable Power Tools Consumables you will find Diamond Blades (for stone, concrete, and tile cutting), Cordless Batteries and Chargers (replacement battery packs and chargers for the common cordless tool platforms), Diamond Core Bit (for masonry and concrete core-drilling), Drill Vices (small machine vices for use with portable drills), and Hole Cutters (hole saws, step drills, and bi-metal hole cutters across the standard hole diameters). Parts For Machines is an Authorised Distributor and Seller of Draper, SIP, and Sealey across the portable power tools consumables range. For pneumatic-tool consumables — air-tool service kits, impact-wrench anvils, abrasive accessories — Parts For Machines offers Chicago Pneumatic alongside the wider Draper, SIP, and Sealey lines. Product pages list the tool type the consumable is rated for (electric mains-fed, cordless 18V/20V/36V, pneumatic), the diameter or size for cutting and drilling consumables (in mm or inches), the working specifications (RPM rating, power-source compatibility, water-cooling or dry-cutting use), and any kit contents for multi-piece sets. Cordless tool batteries and chargers are platform-specific — match the battery to the tool's voltage and platform (the manufacturer's battery slide-mount is typically unique to that brand and platform generation). Product pages list battery compatibility for the cordless tools we sell. Trade pricing on bulk and case-pack orders is available — high-frequency consumables like drill bits, diamond blades, and cordless batteries see good trade-pack pricing.
