Abstract
The invention relates to a cutting wire, with preferably metal-bonded cutting beads with diamond abrasives, and a wire connector to form a loop for use on mobile and stationary wire sawing machines. Through the invention, the life of the cutting wire connectors is considerably improved. This improvement of service life is achieved because premature wire breaks in the proximity of the connector are avoided by introducing preferably annular inserts made of an elastic mass between the main wire and the clamping sleeve of the connector before the clamping action is executed so that after clamping an elastic, pre-stressed, vibration-dampening zone is created.
