Circular Saw Blade MILWAUKEE TCT AX Z Carbide-tipped 230 mm 5 Teeth, single piece

MILWAUKEE TCT AX Z Carbide-tipped 230 mm circular saw blade with 5 teeth, supplied as a single piece, is designed for through cuts where a TCT (tungsten carbide tipped) tooth geometry delivers edge durability and cutting precision. The blade's 230 mm diameter and low tooth count make it suitable for fast, aggressive ripping or through-cut operations when used on compatible circular saws. Its carbide tips are intended to maintain cutting performance and resist wear under typical jobsite conditions.

Advantages

The TCT AX Z design combines tungsten carbide tips with a tooth geometry optimized for through cuts, providing consistent tooth life and resistance to abrasion. With only 5 teeth, the blade enables rapid material removal and a reduced cutting time on long rip cuts. The single-piece supply ensures an easy replacement process and compatibility with standard 230 mm circular saw spindles that accept this design.

Suitable for

• Fast ripping of softwood and dimensional lumber
• Through cuts where minimal tooth count and aggressive feed are required
• On-site carpentry and construction tasks using compatible circular saws
• Applications where carbide-tipped durability is preferred over ordinary high-speed steel blades

Key specifications

• Diameter: 230 mm
• Number of teeth: 5
• Tip material: Tungsten carbide (carbide-tipped)
• Blade type: TCT (tungsten carbide tipped), AX Z tooth geometry
• Supply: Single piece

How to use

Install the blade on a compatible circular saw following the saw manufacturer's instructions, ensuring correct flange orientation and secure fastening. Use appropriate blade guards and personal protective equipment including eye and hearing protection. For through cuts and ripping, set a steady feed rate to allow the carbide tips to cut efficiently without overloading the motor. Allow the blade to cool between prolonged cuts and avoid forcing the saw to prevent premature wear of the carbide tips.

Usage recommendations

Use the blade on saws rated for 230 mm blades and verify maximum RPM compatibility. Match feed rate and material type to the blade's low-tooth design: slower, steady feeds for harder timbers and faster feeds for softwood ripping. Keep the blade clean from pitch and resin build-up and inspect carbide tips regularly for chipping or dulling to maintain cutting quality.
