Saw blade for Festool circular saws - Laminates

Carbide Tipped - Saw blade for circular saws - Crosscut/Laminate

The ideal circular saw blade for achieving fine, clean cuts. This carbide-tipped blade is designed with cross-cut teeth to deliver smooth, splinter-free cross cuts in solid wood, as well as in coated or veneered panels. Made from high-quality steel and equipped with fine-grain carbide teeth, it ensures precision and durability.

Key Features:

  • Excellent Cut Quality: Produces clean, splinter-free cuts in various materials, including solid wood and panels.
  • Premium Carbide Teeth: Made from high-quality metal for optimal cutting performance and precise, perfect cuts.
  • Adapted Design: The cutting angle and tooth shape are specifically tailored for the application and machine, ensuring top-notch results.
  • Perfect for Fine Cuts: Ideal for use with TS 55 and TSC 55 circular saws, ensuring precise and efficient work every time.
  • Versatile Applications: Suitable for fine cuts in veneered and coated panels, solid wood cross cuts, and MDF.

High-quality tungsten carbide is used with a micro grain structure to achieve a high edge retention and remains sharper for longer.

The saw blade can be used both for crosscutting and laminates.

Compatibility: This blade is compatible with the following Festool circular saw models: TS 55, TSC 55, ATF 55, AP 55.

Saw blade terminology

Arbor:
The shaft that turns the saw blade.

ATB:
Alternate Top Bevel. The tips on the saw blade bevels from left to right in sequence. Each tip has a sharp point that result in a clean, shear cut leaving a fine finish with minimal chipping. For use in plywood, veneer, particle board and wood.

Anti-kickback:
The gullet is shaped like a camel&s hump, also called a limiter, to limit the amount of material that can safely be cut by each tooth.

Bore:
The center hole diameter of the saw blade.

Combination:
Circular saw blades that can be used both for crosscutting and ripping.

Crosscut:
A cut made across the grain of the wood. Cutting wood to length.

Dado:
A set of stacked blades designed to produce grooves.

Depth of cut:
The maximum depth of cut safely achievable determined by the power tool and saw blade diameter.

Diameter:
The outside of the saw blade measured directly accross from one tip to the other opposing tip.

Expansion slots:
Heat is generated with each cut due to friction. All saw blades have expansion slots in the body of the blade to have an outlet to release tension and warping.

Flange:
Falnges are used to clamp the saw blade to the arbor of the saw. Most of the time, the flanges cover more or less a third of the saw blade&s diameter. It is important that the flanges are always clean to prevent warping and vibration.

Flat top grind (FTG):
Unlike the ATB, the tips are ground flat with a 0° top angle. The tips are more durable and longer lasting. Mostly used with rip saw blades.

Gullet:
The hollowed out shape between teeth that assists with chip clearance. Saw blades have different gullet designs. Mostly dependant on the material being cut.

Hollow ground:
The tips are concave shaped.

Hook angle/rake/pitch:
Forward angled tips tend to grab material, like a gouge carving into the material. Backward angled tips don&t have grabbing at all, like a scissor cutting the material.

Kerf:
The width of cut.

Rip:
A cut made along the grain direction of the wood. Cutting wood to width.

Shim/bushing:
Depending on the bore of the saw blade and the arbor of the saw. A shim or bushing is available to adapt the saw blade to the arbor. No bushings or shims are available in Ø 22.23mm.

TCG:
Triple Chip Grind. A flat top tooth is followed by a trapezoidal tooth. Designed for saw blades to eliminate chipping in brittle materials like chipboard and laminated material.

Thin kerf:
The saw blades are slightly narrower than standard saw blades. A lot less power is needed to make cuts and it has a slightly lower material waste. Keep in mind to recalibrate the scale on table saws when fitting a thin kerf saw blade.

consider safety for your health and the people around you
