Circular saw blade AWTools AW48457, 300 g weight

AWTools AW48457 is a circular saw blade made of high-quality carbon steel with laser cut manufacturing and a listed weight of 300 g. The cutting teeth use tungsten-carbide tips to maintain sharpness and deliver consistent cut quality. The blade includes expansion slots to dissipate heat and reduce the risk of deformation during prolonged or demanding cutting operations. It is supplied with a 30 mm bore and two reduction rings for 22 mm and 16 mm, and is suitable for use with both portable and stationary circular saws.

Advantages

The combination of a carbon-steel body and tungsten-carbide teeth provides a balance of durability and cutting performance. Laser cutting ensures accurate geometry and a clean running blade. Expansion slots limit thermal distortion and help preserve blade flatness under load. The alternating beveled teeth with a 10° positive hook angle and an approximate 4.5 mm kerf width are designed to produce smooth transverse and angled cuts. Supplied reduction rings increase compatibility with a wide range of saw arbors.

Suitable for

• Crosscuts and angled cuts in hardwood
• Cutting wood-based panels such as plywood and MDF
• Trimming and sizing of hard plastics
• Replacement blade for portable and stationary circular saws

How to use

Ensure the saw is disconnected from power before removing or fitting the blade. Mount the AWTools AW48457 blade onto the saw arbor using the appropriate reduction ring for a secure fit and verify correct blade rotation direction. Tighten the arbor nut to the saw manufacturer's specified torque. Adjust saw settings such as cutting depth and fence alignment according to the material and the desired cut. Allow the saw to reach full speed before feeding the workpiece and avoid forcing material through the blade to maintain cut quality and blade life.

Usage recommendations

Use the blade for transverse and angular cuts in hardwoods, wood-based panels and hard plastics. For best results, use steady feed speed, secure the workpiece, and follow the saw manufacturer's safety instructions. Inspect the blade for damage before each use and replace if teeth are chipped or the blade shows signs of warping.
