Circular Saw Blade Art-Pol 180 x 30 mm, 40 Tungsten Carbide Teeth (AR42184)

The Art-Pol circular saw blade 180 x 30 mm with 40 tungsten carbide teeth is a woodworking blade designed for general-purpose cutting. It fits circular saws and table saws with a 30 mm bore and is intended for cutting wood and wood-based materials. The 40-tooth configuration delivers a compromise between cutting speed and surface finish, suitable for crosscuts and routine woodworking operations.

Advantages

This blade uses tungsten carbide teeth for increased hardness and wear resistance compared with standard high-speed steel teeth, extending service life under normal woodworking conditions. The 40-tooth geometry provides smoother cuts than many coarse blades while maintaining acceptable feed rates, reducing the need for additional finishing. Its 30 mm bore ensures compatibility with many common saw arbors, and the 180 mm diameter gives a good balance of cutting depth and maneuverability for portable and benchtop machines.

Suitable for

• Crosscutting softwoods and hardwoods
• General-purpose rip and cross cuts in construction and carpentry tasks
• Cutting plywood, MDF and other wood-based panels
• Use on circular saws and table saws with a 30 mm arbor

Key specifications

• Diameter: 180 mm
• Bore (arbor) diameter: 30 mm
• Number of teeth: 40
• Tooth material: tungsten carbide

How to use

Mount the blade on a compatible circular saw or table saw with a 30 mm arbor, following the tool manufacturer's instructions and ensuring the machine is unplugged or its power is isolated before installation. Check blade rotation direction marks and secure the blade with the appropriate flange and nut. Set cutting depth and fence or guide for accurate cuts. Use a steady feed rate appropriate to the wood species and thickness; avoid forcing the blade to prevent overheating and premature wear. After cutting, allow the blade to stop fully before touching or removing it.

Usage recommendations

Use appropriate personal protective equipment (eye and hearing protection, dust mask) and ensure workpieces are properly supported and clamped. For best results on fine finish cuts, reduce feed speed and consider finishing passes or a higher-tooth-count blade when needed. Clean resin and pitch buildup from carbide teeth periodically and inspect the blade for damage before each use.
