Circular saw blade STHOR 08834 — 1 pc, carbide-tipped, for wood

STHOR 08834 circular saw blade supplied as a single piece with carbide-tipped teeth designed for cutting wood. The blade is intended for use in compatible circular saws and provides durable cutting edges suitable for carpentry and general woodworking tasks, including cross and angled cuts in hardwood and wood-based panels. Some hard plastics can be cut with caution and prior testing.

Advantages

The carbide-tipped teeth ensure longer edge life compared with standard steel blades and maintain cutting performance across repeated use. The blade geometry, including a positive rake angle of approximately 10 degrees and alternate (BA) tooth pattern, supports smooth cross and angle cuts while limiting splintering on wood and wood-based materials. A cut width of approximately 4.5 mm balances material removal and stability during cutting.

Suitable for

• Cross-cutting hardwood
• Angle and mitre cuts in solid wood
• Cutting wood-based materials such as plywood and MDF
• Occasional test-cutting of some hard plastics

When it may not be suitable

This blade is optimised for woodworking; it is not designed for prolonged cutting of metals or abrasive non-wood materials. For plastics, test cutting is recommended first as performance and edge wear will vary depending on the polymer and fillers used.

Key specifications

• Material of teeth: carbide-tipped
• Intended material: wood and wood-based panels
• Tooth pattern: alternate (BA)
• Rake angle: approx. +10° (positive)
• Kerf (cut width): approx. 4.5 mm
• Supply: 1 piece

How to use

Install the blade on a compatible circular saw following the saw manufacturer's instructions and ensuring the blade is mounted with the correct rotation direction. Use appropriate saw guards and personal protective equipment. For best results on wood and wood-based panels, feed the material at a steady rate without forcing the blade; for angle or cross cuts, secure the workpiece to prevent movement. When cutting unfamiliar plastics, perform a short test cut and check for melting, chipping, or excessive wear.

What to consider before purchase

• Confirm blade diameter and arbor size compatibility with your circular saw.
• Verify that a carbide-tipped wood blade is appropriate for your target materials.
• Consider required cut quality (cross/finish cuts) and tooth pattern suitability.
• Assess whether occasional plastic cutting is needed and plan test cuts accordingly.

Usage recommendations

The blade performs best when used for its intended purpose—cross and angle cutting of wood and wood-based panels—with steady feed rates, correct mounting, and routine inspection of tooth condition to maintain cut quality and safety.
