mikrofogasú

mikrofogasú is a Hungarian term that translates to "micro-toothed" or "fine-toothed." It is most commonly used to describe a type of gear or saw blade. In the context of gears, mikrofogasú refers to gears with a very small module, meaning the teeth are very finely spaced. This allows for smoother, quieter operation and higher precision, often found in miniature mechanical devices, clockwork, and precision instruments.

When applied to saw blades, mikrofogasú signifies a blade with a very high tooth count or a very small tooth pitch. This results in a finer cut, producing a smoother surface finish and reducing the amount of material removed (kerf). Such blades are ideal for cutting delicate materials, achieving precise joinery, or when a polished-looking edge is desired. They are often used in woodworking for tasks like mitering, fine-detail cutting, and cutting veneers. The fine teeth also make these blades more prone to clogging if used with very soft or gummy materials, requiring more frequent cleaning. The term emphasizes the meticulous nature of the teeth's design and spacing.
