You know how important it is to choose the right size blade for your Dewalt circularsaw if you are a carpenter. It can be hard to choose the right blade for you when there are so many options. We will discuss the various sizes of Dewalt’s circular saw blades and help you choose the right one for you.
Your saws will be cut to a certain diameter depending on the size of the blade. Most common blades are 7-1/10cm and 7-1/2cm.
Both sizes are accepted by most Dewalt circular saws. This page will help you identify the model number of your circular saw. Some models are 5 inches in length.
A 6-inch tablet, for example, would be a good example.
DEWALT CIRCULAR SAW BLADE TYPES
There are three types available in blades, each with its own pros and cons.
BI – METAL BLADE
Bi-metal blades are more durable than standard blades, but they also cost more. These blades can cut through nails easily, making them great for construction projects or other materials with nails.
These blades are not the best for cutting straight lines. They heat up quickly and lose their sharpness in just a few swings. This blade requires advanced knowledge in order to be installed correctly. You can cause your blade to vibrate or lose track if you don’t align its teeth correctly when you attach it. For more information, see our blog post about aligning a circular-saw blade.
STANDARD BLAZE
Bi-metal blades cost more than standard blades. However, they will wear faster and not cut through nails as well. These blades can be used to cut plywood, hardwoods, and other materials without nails.
One thing to keep in mind is that standard blades require higher RPMs to cut straight lines. This can cause some vibration. This problem can be fixed quickly by grinding your teeth slightly. This video demonstrates how it’s done.
TILES BLAZE
Tiles blades are the most durable and long-lasting of all blade types. They are twice as durable as standard and bi-metal blades but cost more.
These blades are designed to cut porcelain and tile. They must be durable enough to withstand high temperatures without cracking. A tiles blade is the best choice if you need to cut a lot of tile.
A standard or bi-metal knife might be a better option if you don’t plan to do a lot with tiles. They will save you money.
CUSTOM BLADE
A custom blade can be made to your specifications if you need a blade that can cut through other materials than those we have already mentioned. These blades can be ordered through most blade distributors or hardware stores. They will help you find the right blade for you.
They will be able to send the right blade for you, regardless of whether it is metal, ceramic, Plexiglas or another material.
How Do I Choose The Size Of A Circular Saw Blade:
Most people will ask this question at some point. How fast you can cut the material with your circular saw blade and what material it is cutting will affect how sharp the cut will look. If you don’t have the right blade for your circular saw, you won’t get a beautiful cut.
Next, we need to know what size circular saw blades are available in a 7-1/10cm saw.
You can find 7-1/10cm, 60 tooth blades and 7-1/10cm, 40 tooth blades in most shops and online. These saw blades can be used to cut plywood, sheet goods, or plastic.
These blades are slower than the 7-1/10 cm. 60 teeth cut faster.
When choosing the size of a circular saw blade, you should also consider what type of material you are cutting. There are many choices. Here are the most popular blade sizes, along with their uses and types.
