Abstract
Abstract A saw and impact resistant member formed of an elongated metal core having a longitudinal exterior surface and a thin wall metal sheath surrounding said core and in contact with said core surface at a finite number of contact lines with longitudinal spaces being formed between the interior wall of said sheath and the exterior surface of the core. The spaces are filled with a matrix formed of hard carbide particles and a soft binder material. The sheath is closely fitted on the core to exclude both binder and hard particles therebetween except in said longitudinal spaces.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 4
Claim 1
Independent Claim
149 words
A saw and impact resistant member comprising: an elongated metal core having a plurality of generally flat longitudinal faces, the adjacent faces meeting at relatively sharp longitudinal edges to thereby define a core of polygonal cross-section; a thin walled tubular metal sheath telescopically surrounding said core and being in contact with the core only at said relatively sharp core edges to center the core relative to the sheath; a plurality of substantially identical longitudinal spaces each having a segment-shaped cross-section, each formed between the interior wall surface of said tubular sheath and one longitudinal face of said core; said longitudinal spaces being filled with a matrix formed of closely packed hard particles such as metallic carbide or the like and a soft binder material; said tubular sheath being closely fitted on said polygonal core to exclude both said binder and said hard particles therebetween except in said longitudinal spaces.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
149 words
A saw and impact resistant member comprising: an elongated metal core having a plurality of generally flat longitudinal faces, the adjacent faces meeting at relatively sharp longitudinal edges to thereby define a core of polygonal cross-section; a thin walled tubular metal sheath telescopically surrounding said core and being in contact with the core only at said relatively sharp core edges to center the core relative to the sheath; a plurality of substantially identical longitudinal spaces each having a segment-shaped cross-section, each formed between the interior wall surface of said tubular sheath and one longitudinal face of said core; said longitudinal spaces being filled with a matrix formed of closely packed hard particles such as metallic carbide or the like and a soft binder material; said tubular sheath being closely fitted on said polygonal core to exclude both said binder and said hard particles therebetween except in said longitudinal spaces.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
149 words
An improved saw and impact resistant member comprising: an elongated cylindrical metal core; a thin walled elongated metal sleeve having an interior bore of a polygonal configuration to define an interior surface including a plurality of faces of generally equal width; said sleeve telescopically surrounding said core with each of the interior surface faces of the sleeve contacting the exterior surface of the cylindrical core at a finite number of elongated lines of contact; and a plurality of longitudinal spaces each being bounded by two adjacent elongated lines of contact and the exterior core surface and the interior sleeve surface therebetween; said longitudinal spaces being filled with a matrix formed of closely packed hard particles such as metallic carbide and a soft binder material; said sleeve and core being closely fitted together to provide said lines of contact and to exclude said matrix therebetween except in said longitudinal spaces.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
149 words
An improved saw and impact resistant member comprising: an elongated cylindrical metal core; a thin walled elongated metal sleeve having an interior bore of a polygonal configuration to define an interior surface including a plurality of faces of generally equal width; said sleeve telescopically surrounding said core with each of the interior surface faces of the sleeve contacting the exterior surface of the cylindrical core at a finite number of elongated lines of contact; and a plurality of longitudinal spaces each being bounded by two adjacent elongated lines of contact and the exterior core surface and the interior sleeve surface therebetween; said longitudinal spaces being filled with a matrix formed of closely packed hard particles such as metallic carbide and a soft binder material; said sleeve and core being closely fitted together to provide said lines of contact and to exclude said matrix therebetween except in said longitudinal spaces.
