FAQs

Can I use these blades on a metal-cutting saw?

No, these blades are specifically designed for woodworking and will be damaged if used on metal.

What is the primary benefit of TCT tips?

Tungsten Carbide Tipped blades hold an edge significantly longer than high-speed steel blades, meaning less frequent sharpening.

Do I need to use the reduction rings?

Only if your saw arbor size is smaller than the native blade bore size. Use the ring that matches your saw's shaft exactly.

How do I know which blade to pick?

Use fewer teeth (16T) for fast, rough cuts and more teeth (30T) for slow, smooth finish cuts.

Are these blades compatible with table saws?

These are designed for 160mm circular saws; check your table saw's manual to ensure it supports 160mm blade diameters.

Troubleshooting

Blade causing excessive splintering or tear-out

Switch to a higher tooth count blade (30T) and ensure your feed rate is consistent and not too aggressive.

Motor burning out or blade stalling

You may be using a blade with too many teeth for the material thickness; switch to a lower tooth count (16T) for better chip clearance.

Blade vibrates during operation

Check that the bore reduction ring is properly seated and that the flange nut is tightened securely to the arbor.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To install, ensure your saw is disconnected from its power source. Select the appropriate reduction ring that matches your saw's arbor shaft. Always verify that the blade rotation arrow on the disc aligns with the rotation direction of your saw motor. To maintain longevity, keep the blades clean of resin and pitch build-up using a dedicated blade cleaner, as residue can cause overheating and drag. Store the blades in their original packaging or a protective blade rack to ensure the tungsten tips do not chip against other metal tools.
