No, this blade is specifically designed for wood and laminates only. Cutting metal will damage the carbide teeth.
No, you must verify your specific saw model accepts a 20mm arbor. Many standard saws use different sizes.
If you notice increased resistance, burning marks on the wood, or a decrease in cutting speed, it may be time for a professional sharpening.
While optimized for cordless tools, it will work on corded saws that accept a 190mm blade with a 20mm bore.
The thin kerf is a key feature of the Efficut line, designed to reduce motor load and extend battery life.
Reduce your feed rate and check that the blade speed is set appropriately for the material hardness.
Check that the blade flange is tightened correctly and that the arbor is free of debris or wood dust.
Clean the blade teeth to remove resin buildup and ensure you are not forcing the blade through the stock too quickly.
Ensure your saw is unplugged or the battery is removed before changing blades. The E-11162 features a 20mm bore, so confirm your circular saw spindle is compatible. When installing, ensure the rotation arrow on the blade aligns with the saw's rotation direction. To maintain the blade, avoid dropping it on hard surfaces, which can chip the carbide teeth. After heavy use, clean the blade with a resin remover to prevent build-up that can cause friction and overheating. Store in a dry, safe location away from other steel tools to prevent corrosion.
