Circular Saw Blade Art-Pol AR42256 — 250 mm diameter, 30 mm bore, 60 carbide teeth

The Art-Pol AR42256 circular saw blade is a 250 mm diameter blade with a 30 mm bore and 60 carbide-tipped teeth, engineered for accurate crosscutting and rip cutting in solid wood and wood-based panels. The tungsten-carbide tips offer abrasion resistance and maintain cutting edge sharpness for extended service life. The blade is intended for use on table saws and mitre saws that accept a 30 mm arbor and is suitable for workshop and professional carpentry environments where precision and consistent results are required.

Advantages

The combination of a 250 mm diameter and a high tooth count provides smooth cuts and reduced tear-out on veneered and laminated surfaces. Carbide-tipped teeth reduce the frequency of sharpening and resist wear when cutting abrasive wood-based materials. The 30 mm bore ensures compatibility with common saw arbors used in professional equipment. Overall construction balances cutting speed and finish quality for both crosscuts and rip cuts.

Suitable for

• Crosscutting softwood and hardwood
• Rip cutting along the grain of boards and planks
• Cutting plywood, MDF and particleboard with reduced chipping
• Table saw and mitre saw applications with 30 mm arbor
• Workshop and professional carpentry tasks requiring precise, repeatable cuts

Key specifications

• Blade diameter: 250 mm
• Bore (arbor) diameter: 30 mm
• Tooth count: 60 carbide-tipped teeth
• Tooth material: tungsten-carbide tips for improved wear resistance
• Primary use: crosscutting and rip cutting in wood and wood-based materials

How to use

Install the blade on a compatible table saw or mitre saw ensuring the machine is powered off and unplugged before fitting. Verify the blade is correctly oriented with the teeth pointing in the machine's cutting direction and tighten the arbor nut to the manufacturer's recommended torque. Adjust saw settings such as cutting depth and fence alignment according to material thickness and desired cut quality. Use appropriate feed rates: steady and even for smooth finishes, slower for harder or abrasive materials. After use, allow the blade to stop completely before removing or touching it.

Usage recommendations

For best results, match blade RPM and feed rate to the material being cut and use proper push sticks and safety guards. Periodically inspect the carbide tips for damage and have the blade professionally sharpened when performance declines. Store the blade in a dry place to prevent corrosion of the steel body and protect the carbide edges from impact.
