Tork Craft Contractor TCT Circular Saw Blade 185mm × 40T × 30/20/16mm
Highlights: 185mm Contractor Series TCT blade with 40 teeth and multi-bore 30/20/16mm fitment for flexible use across different circular saws
The Tork Craft Contractor TCT Circular Saw Blade 185mm × 40T × 30/20/16mm forms part of the Contractor Series — dependable, professional-grade blades designed for real job-site and workshop conditions. With 40 tungsten carbide-tipped teeth, it offers a strong balance between cutting speed and edge quality in softwoods, hardwoods and wood-based panels.
The versatile 30mm bore, with reducing bushes for 20mm and 16mm, allows this blade to fit a wide range of circular saws in your fleet. The Contractor Series is not a “budget” level option, but a robust, work-ready solution that delivers reliable performance and consistent results day after day.
The Tork Craft Contractor Series TCT circular saw blade is a trade-focused range built for contractors, carpenters and site crews who rely on their tools every day. These blades combine durable construction with carbide-tipped teeth and practical tooth geometry to provide dependable, repeatable cutting performance rather than cut-price compromises.
Extra Information
- Ideal for contractors, carpenters, joiners, shopfitters and site crews who need a dependable, everyday cutting blade.
- Recommended for use on softwoods, many hardwoods (check species suitability), plywood, chipboard and common wood-based panels.
- Suitable for circular saws rated for 185mm blades; always confirm arbor size and maximum RPM match the blade before use.
- To extend blade life, avoid forcing the cut, keep the blade clean from resin and pitch build-up, check that your saw base and fence are aligned, and store the blade safely when not in service.
Pro Tip
- When cutting sheet goods or long boards, clamp a straight-edge guide and make a light scoring pass before your full-depth cut. Combined with the 40-tooth Contractor blade, this helps reduce tear-out and gives straighter, cleaner edges with less sanding afterward.
Features
- 185mm diameter blade Offers generous cutting depth while remaining manageable on handheld and site circular saws.
- 40T carbide-tipped teeth Balanced tooth count for efficient cutting with a clean, controlled finish on most timber and panel materials.
- 30/20/16mm multi-bore Standard 30mm bore supplied with 20mm and 16mm reducing bushes for maximum saw compatibility.
- Contractor Series construction Built for frequent use, tougher conditions and real-world job-site demands.
- General-purpose tooth geometry Suitable for ripping, cross-cutting, trimming and sizing a variety of wood and board products.
Benefits
- Reliable site performance: Engineered for everyday trade use, helping you achieve consistent results across many different jobs.
- Efficient cutting: The 40-tooth layout supports a good feed rate while still delivering a respectable edge finish.
- Flexible fitment: Multi-bore design means one blade can service several saws, simplifying your blade selection on site.
- Professional finish: Carbide-tipped teeth and Contractor Series quality help the blade stay sharp and cut true for longer.
Safety
- Wear eye, ear and dust protection whenever cutting to guard against flying chips, noise and fine dust.
- Always disconnect the saw from its power source before fitting, adjusting or removing the blade.
- Ensure the blade is mounted correctly: the rotation arrow on the blade must match the saw’s direction, and all flanges and guards must be secure.
- Support the workpiece properly, keep hands well clear of the cutting line and avoid binding or kick-back situations.
- Allow the blade to reach full speed before entering the cut and wait until it has stopped completely before setting the saw down or changing blades.
