Makita presents a 3-pack of standard T.C.T circular saw blades, sized at 165 x 20 mm with 40 teeth. The blade features an ATB (Alternate Top Bevel) tooth shape. This design bevels the tooth tips alternately left and right, creating a sharp point at the top of each tooth. As a result, it makes clean and precise cuts and reduces splintering and tear-out on the cut edges. Ideal for cutting wood, this standard 165mm carbide tipped saw blade has 40 tungsten carbide tipped teeth, a 2.0mm kerf, and a 20mm hole diameter. The blade diameter is 165 mm, bore size (arbor diameter) is 20 mm, kerf dimension is 2.0 mm, tooth quantity is 40, rake angle is 18°, and you get 3 blades in the pack.
Using these Makita circular saw blades is straightforward. First, make sure your circular saw is turned off and unplugged. Then, install the blade onto the saw following the saw's manual instructions. Once installed, plug in the saw and turn it on to start cutting wood. Remember to always wear safety goggles and gloves when operating the saw. When cutting, apply steady pressure and let the blade do the work. Don't force it as this can lead to a rough cut or damage the blade. After use, unplug the saw and clean the blade with a soft brush to remove any wood debris. Store the blades in a dry place to prevent rust. If the blade becomes dull over time, it's best to replace it for continued good performance.
