Circular saw blade AWTools AW484581, weight 300 g

Circular saw blade AWTools AW484581, weight 300 g, is a general-purpose blade designed for cutting hardwood, wood-based panels and hard plastics. Manufactured by AWTools from laser-cut carbon steel, the blade combines a durable steel body with tungsten-carbide teeth to maintain sharpness and deliver consistent cut quality. It includes expansion slots to disperse heat and reduce the risk of deformation under heavy use. The blade is supplied with a 30 mm bore and reduction rings for 22 mm and 16 mm arbors; 115–125 mm sizes use a 22 mm bore.

Advantages

The AWTools AW484581 blade features tungsten-carbide tipped teeth for extended edge life and improved cutting precision. Laser-cut carbon steel body ensures flatness and dimensional stability. Expansion slots help manage thermal expansion and minimize vibration during operation. Alternating bevel teeth with a 10° positive hook angle and an approximate 4.5 mm kerf width provide efficient material removal and clean crosscuts. Supplied reduction rings make the blade adaptable to different arbor sizes on stationary and portable saws.

Suitable for

• Crosscutting and angled cuts in hardwood
• Cutting particleboard, plywood and MDF
• Trimming hard plastics and composite panels
• Replacement or spare blade for compatible circular saws and miter saws

How to use

Install the AWTools AW484581 blade on a saw that accepts the provided bore and reduction rings, ensuring correct orientation of the teeth for the intended cut direction. Secure the blade with the appropriate flange and locking nut, and verify tightness before operation. Set the saw speed and feed rate according to the material being cut, and make test cuts on scrap material to confirm cut quality and alignment. Observe manufacturer instructions for your saw regarding blade clearance and maximum RPM limits to ensure safe operation.

Usage recommendations

Use personal protective equipment, including eye and hearing protection, and follow safe cutting practices. For best results on hardwood and engineered wood, use steady feed and avoid forcing the blade. Allow the blade to cool between extended cuts to reduce thermal stress. Replace or sharpen the blade when cutting quality declines or when teeth show visible wear.
