Wet Model "J"
The most popular member of the Johnson line as it has a
capacity of 10" rounds and flats up to 18" wide. This offers an
extremely wide range for the handling of smallest size cuts
up to anything that will go into the throat. Being equipped with
a coolant attachment it also permits continuous cutting on

production jobs.
Dry Model "J"
This is the original member of the Johnson line. It is identical
with the Wet Model except for the wet cutting attachment.
Recommended particularly for odd job cutting of a limited
number of pieces. Desirable especially for cutting heavy
structurals or odd shaped pieces. Widely used in large plants
for cutting heavy bars or rods. Also suitable for gang cutting.
Wet Model "B"

throat capacity of 5" rounds and 10" flats. It has a built-in
pump and drip pan for wet operation, making it an ideal
machine for all types of cutting, including production jobs.

Close tolerances assured because of rigidity of construction. Wheel assembly is bolted on
steel brackets solidly to the rigid, box type, twist-proof frame. Stresses are transmitted prac

oversized and mounted on automotive type roller bearings.
3 POINT SUSPENSION
Uneven floors cannot affect the accuracy as the wide rear leg provides a firm, solid sup
