Circular saw blade NORTON 220 mm × 30 mm, 24 teeth, for wood and composites, ATB, 2.8/1.8

NORTON circular saw blade, 220 mm diameter with a 30 mm bore and 24 ATB teeth, is designed for cutting solid wood and wood-based composites. The blade has a thickness/profile of 2.8/1.8 mm and an alternate top bevel (ATB) tooth geometry that produces cleaner crosscuts and reduces tear-out on veneered and laminated surfaces. It is intended for use in table saws, mitre saws and panel saws in woodworking and light carpentry operations.

Advantages

The carbide-tipped teeth deliver long-lasting cutting performance and resistance to wear when cutting a variety of wood materials. The ATB geometry improves cut quality on crossgrain and reduces splintering on laminated panels. The 220 mm diameter combined with a 30 mm bore makes the blade compatible with many standard saw arbors, while the 24-tooth count provides a balance between cutting speed and finish quality for general-purpose woodworking.

Suitable for

• Crosscutting solid wood and boards
• Cutting veneered or laminated panels and composites
• General-purpose ripping and cross-cut tasks where a smooth edge is required
• Use on table saws, mitre saws and panel saws with a 30 mm arbor

Key specifications

• Diameter: 220 mm
• Bore (arbor) diameter: 30 mm
• Number of teeth: 24
• Tooth type: Alternate Top Bevel (ATB)
• Blade thickness/profile: 2.8/1.8 mm
• Tip material: carbide-tipped teeth

How to use

Install the blade on a saw with a matching 30 mm arbor following the machine manufacturer’s instructions and ensuring the blade rotation direction matches the saw’s rotation. Secure the blade with the correct flange and nut torque, check blade runout and align the fence or mitre gauge before making test cuts. Feed workpieces at a steady, appropriate speed for the material, keeping hands clear of the blade and using push sticks or featherboards when needed. Replace the blade if carbide tips are damaged or if cutting performance deteriorates significantly.

Usage recommendations

Use personal protective equipment (eye and hearing protection) and dust extraction when cutting. For the best finish on laminates and veneered surfaces, support the workpiece close to the cut line and use a zero-clearance insert where possible. Match feed rate and blade RPM to material thickness to avoid burning or tear-out.
