Carbide Tipped Saw Blade for Festool circular saws - Universal 160mm x 20mm bore x 28T
Durability and precision for the toughest conditions, tailored to both the application and material. Crafted from high-quality steel with saw teeth made from fine-grain carbide, this blade ensures a perfect cut, complementing the performance of your machine.
Features:
- Fast Sawing Action: Designed with cross-cut teeth for rapid, efficient cutting.
- High-Quality Carbide Teeth: Saw teeth made from premium carbide for optimal cutting performance and excellent cut quality.
- Versatile Cutting: Featuring alternating teeth with a medium chip angle, this blade is suitable for both rip cuts and crosscuts, making it highly versatile.
- Precision Performance: Perfectly paired with TS 55 T, TSC 55 K plunge-cut saws, and the HK 55 and HKC 55, this blade delivers precise, efficient results in every cut.
- Ideal for Wood and Panels: Suitable for all wooden materials and building panels, providing medium-cut quality for versatile woodworking needs.
This circular saw blade is the perfect solution for achieving precise, efficient cuts, enhancing the performance of your cutting tools across a range of woodworking applications.
The reduced cutting width of the saw blade geometry allows users to work faster and for longer. The saw teeth of high-quality carbide result in a considerably longer service life, while maintaining a consistent cutting quality.
Compatibility: This blade is compatible with the following Festool circular saws models: TS 55, TSC 55, ATF 55, AP 55.
Saw blade terminology
Arbor:
The shaft that turns the saw blade.
ATB:
Alternate Top Bevel. The tips on the saw blade bevels from left to right in
sequence. Each tip has a sharp point that result in a clean, shear cut leaving a
fine finish with minimal chipping. For use in plywood, veneer, particle board
and wood.
Anti-kickback:
The gullet is shaped like a camel's hump, also called a limiter, to limit the
amount of material that can safely be cut by each tooth.
Bore:
The center hole diameter of the saw blade.
Combination:
Circular saw blades that can be used both for crosscutting and ripping.
Crosscut:
A cut made across the grain of the wood. Cutting wood to length.
Dado:
A set of stacked blades designed to produce grooves.
Depth of cut:
The maximum depth of cut safely achievable determined by the power tool
and saw blade diameter.
Diameter:
The outside of the saw blade measured directly accross from one tip to the other
opposing tip.
Expansion slots:
Heat is generated with each cut due to friction. All saw blades have expansion
slots in the body of the blade to have an outlet to release tension and warping.
Flange:
Falnges are used to clamp the saw blade to the arbor of the saw. Most of the
time, the flanges cover more or less a third of the saw blade's diameter. It is
important that the flanges are always clean to prevent warping and vibration.
Flat top grind (FTG):
Unlike the ATB, the tips are ground flat with a 0° top angle. The tips
are more durable and longer lasting. Mostly used with rip saw blades.
Gullet:
The hollowed out shape between teeth that assists with chip clearance. Saw
blades have different gullet designs. Mostly dependant on the material being
cut.
Hollow ground:
The tips are concave shaped.
Hook angle/rake/pitch:
Forward angled tips tend to grab material, like a gouge carving into the
material. Backward angled tips don't have grabbing at all, like a scissor
cutting the material.
Kerf:
The width of cut.
Rip:
A cut made along the grain direction of the wood. Cutting wood to
width.
Shim/bushing:
Depending on the bore of the saw blade and the arbor of the saw. A shim or
bushing is available to adapt the saw blade to the arbor. No bushings or shims
are available in Ø 22.23mm.
TCG:
Triple Chip Grind. A flat top tooth is followed by a trapezoidal tooth. Designed
for saw blades to eliminate chipping in brittle materials like chipboard and
laminated material.
Thin kerf:
The saw blades are slightly narrower than standard saw blades. A lot
less power is needed to make cuts and it has a slightly lower material waste.
Keep in mind to recalibrate the scale on table saws when fitting a thin kerf saw
blade.
