Circular Saw Blade Makita M-Force 165 mm x 20 mm, 10 teeth — for wood

Makita M-Force circular saw blade 165 mm x 20 mm, 10 teeth, is a replacement blade designed specifically for cutting wood with compatible circular saws. With a 165 mm diameter and 20 mm arbor, this blade delivers straight crosscuts and rip cuts in timber and other wooden materials, intended for workshop use or on-site woodworking where a compact, low-tooth-count blade is required.

Advantages

The 10-tooth configuration reduces cutting resistance and enables faster, more aggressive cuts through soft and medium-density wood. The blade's dimensions (165 mm diameter and 20 mm bore) ensure compatibility with compact circular saws and allow stable mounting. Its design promotes efficient material removal and a clean, straight cut line when performing crosscuts and rip cuts in boards, beams, and panels.

Suitable for

• Crosscutting and ripping of softwoods and construction timber
• On-site carpentry and framing tasks
• Workshop cutting of boards and panels where a coarse tooth blade is acceptable
• Replacement blade for compact circular saws requiring 165×20 mm blades

Key specifications

• Diameter: 165 mm
• Arbor bore: 20 mm
• Tooth count: 10
• Material compatibility: wood and similar wooden materials
• Intended cut types: crosscuts and rip cuts

How to use

Install the blade following the circular saw manufacturer's instructions, ensuring the saw is disconnected from power before fitting. Secure the blade on the 20 mm arbor and tighten the flange nut to the recommended torque. Use appropriate feed rates and steady guidance to achieve straight cuts; the 10-tooth blade is optimized for faster, rougher cuts rather than fine finishing. Always wear eye, hearing and respiratory protection and clamp workpieces as required for safe operation.

Usage recommendations

For longer blade life and better cut quality, avoid cutting abrasive materials or nails, maintain correct saw speed and feed, and inspect the blade for damage before each use. If smoother finishes are needed, consider a blade with a higher tooth count.
