On a busy construction site, a carpenter reaches for the Graphite 57H896 to cut through plywood and MDF with clean, splinter-free results. This 185 mm circular saw blade with a 30 mm bore and 40 tungsten carbide teeth is built for smooth crosscuts and rips in wood, plywood, chipboard, and MDF. The ATB tooth configuration slices efficiently, while anti-kickback design and expansion slots keep the blade stable at speeds up to 8000 RPM.

Why choose it

The tungsten carbide teeth stay sharp longer than standard steel, reducing downtime and blade changes.

Expansion slots dissipate heat, keeping the blade flat and true even during extended use.

• Ripping and crosscutting lumber
• Trim work and finish carpentry

Good to know

The 30 mm bore fits most standard circular saws in the 185 mm class. Always check your saw's arbor size and maximum RPM rating before use. For best results, keep the blade clean and sharp, and store it in a dry place to prevent corrosion. One blade per pack.
