Circular saw blade DeWalt 184 x 16 mm, 48 teeth, TCG tooth geometry

DeWalt 184 x 16 mm circular saw blade with 48 TCG teeth is designed for fine cross-cutting and finish work in solid wood and wood-based panels. The 184 mm diameter and 16 mm bore fit many handheld and table circular saws that accept a 16 mm arbor. The trapezoidal TCG tooth geometry reduces tear-out and provides cleaner edges on laminates, veneered boards and natural timber, making it suitable for trim, joinery and visible cuts where a neat result is required.

Advantages

The 48-tooth TCG configuration balances cutting speed and surface quality, delivering accurate, low-splinter cuts while maintaining efficient material removal. High tooth count combined with trapezoidal geometry increases edge life and helps produce consistent results across repeated cuts. The blade’s dimensions are common for finishing applications, allowing easy replacement in compatible saws.

Suitable for

• Cross-cutting solid wood with minimal splintering
• Cutting veneered boards, MDF and plywood for visible edges
• Finish carpentry, trim and joinery tasks
• Handheld circular saw and table saw work with 16 mm arbor

Key specifications

• Diameter: 184 mm
• Bore (arbor): 16 mm
• Number of teeth: 48
• Tooth geometry: TCG (trapezoidal grind)
• Application: cross-cutting and fine finishing in wood and wood-based materials

How to use

Install the blade on a compatible circular saw with a 16 mm arbor according to the saw manufacturer’s instructions, ensuring correct rotation direction and secure mounting. Use appropriate feed rate and blade speed for the material: slower feed rates improve finish when cutting veneered or delicate surfaces. Support workpieces firmly, use clamps for smaller panels, and employ a fence or guide for straight cuts. Wear suitable eye and hearing protection and follow standard safety procedures when operating the saw.

Usage recommendations

For best results on veneered or laminated boards, score the cut line with a utility knife before cutting to further reduce splintering. Keep the blade clean of pitch and resin buildup and inspect teeth regularly; replace the blade when chips or dulling affect cut quality.
