Circular saw blade STHOR 08851 for wood, carbide-tipped, 1 pc

STHOR 08851 is a carbide-tipped circular saw blade sold as a single piece and intended for cutting timber and wood-based materials. The blade is suitable as a replacement for circular saws used in carpentry, construction and workshop settings, offering improved edge retention due to its carbide-tipped teeth and a design that supports cross and angle cutting.

Advantages

The blade features brazed carbide tips and a forked cap design that increase wear resistance and prolong cutting performance. A positive rake angle of approximately 10 degrees and alternate BA tooth geometry contribute to efficient chip removal and smoother cuts. With a kerf of about 4.5 mm, the blade provides stable cutting behavior for a range of wooden materials.

Suitable for

• Cross-cutting and angle cutting of solid hardwood
• Cutting wood-based panels (plywood, MDF, chipboard)
• General carpentry and workshop tasks
• Replacement blade for circular saws used in construction

When it may not be suitable

This blade is optimized for wood and wood-based materials; cutting very hard plastics is possible but should be tested first. It is not intended for extended cutting of non-wood materials like ferrous metals or masonry. Users should avoid using the blade where a thinner kerf or specialized tooth geometry is required for fine finishing or specialized materials.

Key specifications

• Material: steel body with brazed carbide-tipped teeth
• Tooth type: alternate (BA) toothing
• Rake angle: approx. +10° (positive)
• Kerf (cut width): approx. 4.5 mm
• Intended materials: solid hardwood, wood-based panels, some hard plastics (test cutting recommended)

How to use

Mount the STHOR 08851 blade on a circular saw that matches the blade diameter and bore specifications. Ensure the saw is disconnected from power while fitting. Check that the blade is secured and rotates in the correct direction. Use appropriate feed rates and blade speeds for the material being cut, and allow the carbide tips to do the cutting without excessive force. Wear eye, hearing and respiratory protection and follow safe operating procedures for circular saws.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify that blade diameter and bore match your circular saw's specifications.
• Confirm the kerf and tooth geometry suit your required cut quality.
• Consider material compatibility—optimized for wood and wood-based materials; test on hard plastics before regular use.

Usage recommendations

For best results when using the STHOR 08851 carbide-tipped blade, select the correct blade speed and use steady feed rates. Avoid forcing the saw; let the positive rake and carbide teeth cut at their designed rate. Regularly inspect and clean the blade to maintain cutting performance and replace it when carbide tips show significant wear or damage.
