BLADE MASTER TYPE 185X40T 20-16MM ANTI KICK BACK TCT
Features
- 185 mm diameter, 40 teeth designed for smooth, consistent cuts with reduced chipping.
- 20 / 16 mm bore size compatible with standard and reduced-bore saws for flexibility.
- Tungsten carbide tipped (TCT) teeth for high durability and long cutting life.
- Anti-kick-back design engineered tooth and gullets to minimise the risk of blade kick-back and enhance safety.
- Laser-cut stabilising slots (internal) help reduce vibration and maintain accurate, straight cuts under load.
Benefits
- Smoother cuts: fine tooth count produces clean edges, ideal for professional finish work or sheet material.
- Increased safety: anti-kick-back feature helps reduce the chance of dangerous rebound, making the blade more forgiving for busy job-site environments.
- Wide compatibility: 20/16 mm bore fits common circular saws and table saws without need for extra adaptors.
- Long service life: TCT teeth resist wear and remain sharp for many cuts compared to standard blades.
- Versatile cutting: Suitable for ripping, cross-cutting and general wood-working applications on soft and hardwoods, plywood and composite panels.
Extra Information
- Ensure the blade is mounted firmly and aligned correctly before use; check arbor and flange compatibility with 20 / 16 mm bore.
- Use with appropriate feed speeds and avoid forcing the blade — let the TCT teeth work rather than applying excessive pressure.
- Ideal for table saws, panel saws, job-site circular saws and mitre saws where a durable, safe finishing blade is needed.
- Not recommended for cutting very hard metal or masonry; this blade is optimized for wood and panel products.
Pro Tip
- For best results on laminated or veneered panels, apply painter’s masking tape along the cut-line first and score the surface lightly before full cutting — this reduces edge-chipping and leaves a cleaner finish when using this high-quality blade.

Safety
- Wear appropriate eye, ear and dust protection when operating saws with this blade.
- Ensure the saw is disconnected from power before blade installation or removal.
- Check that the blade guard and anti-kick-back features of the saw are functional and in good condition.
- Do not force the blade through the material — allow the blade to cut at its own pace to reduce risk of binding or kick-back.
- Keep hands clear of the blade path and use a push stick or guide when needed for narrow cuts.
