• Flexible compatibility: 20/16mm bore setup allows the same blade to be used across different saws in the workshop or on the crew’s tools.
• Long-lasting cutting edge: Tungsten carbide tips retain sharpness for longer than standard steel, meaning fewer blade changes and higher productivity.

Extra Information

• Ideal for use on construction sites, in joinery shops, fit-out projects and home workshops where dependable performance is required.
• Suitable for cutting softwood, many hardwoods, plywood, chipboard and other common wood-based panels.
• Best used with circular saws that are rated for 160mm blades and are correctly guarded and maintained.
• To extend blade life, avoid forcing the cut, keep the blade free from pitch and resin build-up, and store it safely when not in use.

Specifications

Safety

• Wear eye, ear and dust protection when cutting to protect against flying chips, noise and fine dust.
• Disconnect the saw from the power source before fitting, adjusting or removing the blade.
• Ensure the blade is mounted correctly, with the rotation arrow matching the saw’s direction of travel, and that all flanges and guards are secure.
• Use appropriate supports for the workpiece to prevent pinching or kickback and keep hands well clear of the cutting line.
• Allow the blade to reach full speed before entering the cut and wait until it has stopped completely before setting the saw down.
