Circular saw blade Metabo FZ/FA 190 x 30 mm, 48 teeth, steel

Metabo FZ/FA circular saw blade, 190 x 30 mm with 48 teeth, is a steel construction blade intended for general-purpose cutting on compatible circular saws and table saws. The blade diameter and 30 mm bore match machines that accept 190 x 30 mm blades. With 48 teeth it balances cutting speed and surface finish for a range of wood and similar material applications, providing reliable straight cuts and moderate edge smoothness.

Advantages

The 48-tooth configuration offers a compromise between fast material removal and improved cut quality compared with coarse-toothed blades. Steel construction ensures durability and resistance to deformation under normal working temperatures. The 30 mm bore provides secure mounting on saws designed for this diameter, resulting in stable rotation and reduced wobble. The blade’s dimensions and tooth count make it suitable for through cuts and rip cuts where a relatively smooth finish is desired without sacrificing throughput.

Suitable for

• Crosscutting and rip cutting of soft and hardwoods where a balanced finish is needed
• General workshop and site carpentry tasks using circular saws or table saws compatible with 190 x 30 mm blades
• Cutting composite wood products such as plywood, MDF and chipboard with moderate kerf requirements

Key specifications

• Blade diameter: 190 mm
• Bore diameter: 30 mm
• Number of teeth: 48
• Material: steel
• Intended use: wood and similar sheet materials

How to use

Install the Metabo 190 x 30 mm blade on a compatible circular saw or table saw following the machine manufacturer’s instructions. Ensure the saw is disconnected from power before mounting, align the bore with the arbor and secure the blade with the proper flange and nut torque. Use appropriate feed rates and maintain steady pressure to match the blade’s 48-tooth design; too slow feed can cause burning while too fast feed can reduce cut quality. Wear suitable eye, hearing and respiratory protection during cutting operations and keep the blade clean from pitch and resin buildup to maintain cutting performance.

Recommendations

For best results, use the blade for through-cuts and general-purpose woodworking where a balance of speed and finish is required. Periodically inspect the teeth for wear and sharpen or replace the blade when edge quality diminishes. Store in a dry place to avoid corrosion and remove pitch residues with an appropriate cleaner after use.
