The SawStop TSBC-10R2 10-Inch Standard Brake Cartridge for ICS,PCS & CNS Series SawStop Saws is the magic behind the SawStop. In order to stop the saw, the replaceable fast-acting brake stops the blade when contact is detected. The brake includes a heavy-duty spring to push a block of aluminum, called a brake pawl, into the teeth of the blade to stop the blade from spinning. The spring is held in compression by a fuse wire until contact is detected. When contact is detected, the system sends a surge of electricity through the fuse wire to burn the wire and release the spring. The spring pushes the brake pawl into the teeth of the spinning blade, and the teeth cut into the aluminum and bind, thereby stopping the blade. All this happens in about 3–5 milliseconds, or 1/200th of a second. At the same time, the angular momentum of the blade causes the blade to retract below the table and the power to the motor is shut off. Compatible with all woods and other non conductive materials, this SawStop TSBC-10R2 will work with all standard 10-inch blades.
