CMT ITK-Plus Fast Framing Saw Blade - 7-1/4" x 5/8", 24-Tooth, 10-Pack is a professional-grade circular saw blade engineered for rapid, accurate cuts in framing and structural lumber applications. With a 10 ATB+S tooth grind, 20 deg. hook angle, and hardened carbide tips, this blade delivers clean, fast results in wood, plywood, OSB, and hardboard - making it a go-to choice for contractors, framers, and crews who need reliable performance from both cordless circular saws and portable table saws. The 10-piece bulk masterpack is ideal for job-site teams stocking up without compromising on cut quality.

Key Features

• 24-Tooth ATB+S Grind (10 ATB+S) - the Alternate Top Bevel with Shear geometry slices through framing lumber, plywood, and OSB efficiently, reducing tear-out and delivering smoother edges on structural cuts.
• 20 deg. Hook Angle - an aggressive positive hook angle accelerates material feed and lowers cutting resistance, so each pass through dimensional lumber requires less effort and less time.
• Hardened Carbide Teeth (HW Material) - tungsten carbide tipping maintains a sharp cutting edge longer than standard steel teeth, extending blade life across high-volume framing work.
• 0.069" Kerf / 0.043" Plate Thickness - a thin kerf removes less material per pass, reducing strain on cordless tool batteries and allowing faster cutting with lower power draw - a direct benefit when running on 20V or 60V platforms.
• 5/8" Bore Diameter - fits the standard arbor size found on the vast majority of 7-1/4" cordless circular saws and portable table saws, providing broad compatibility across common job-site machines.
• 8,300 RPM Rating - rated for high rotational speed so the blade can be safely used on fast-spinning cordless saws without risk of overspeed failure during demanding cuts.
• 10-Piece Bulk Masterpack - a cost-efficient quantity for crews running multiple saws simultaneously, reducing mid-project supply interruptions and keeping productivity on schedule.

Why This Product

• Built for cordless saw performance - the thin kerf design and aggressive 20 deg. hook angle are specifically suited to cordless circular saws, preserving battery life while maintaining cutting speed through framing lumber and engineered panels.
• Versatile across common framing materials - rated for wood, plywood, OSB, and hardboard, this blade handles the full range of structural sheathing and dimensional lumber a framing crew encounters on a typical job site.
• 10 ATB+S tooth geometry balances speed and cut quality - the shear component of the grind reduces splintering compared to a flat-top grind, making this blade useful not just for rough framing but also for cleaner cuts in finish-sensitive applications like hardboard panels.
• Bulk 10-pack value reduces downtime - having multiple blades on hand means crews can swap quickly when a blade dulls, keeping saws running and eliminating delays waiting for replacement tooling.

Frequently Asked Questions

What machines is this 7-1/4" blade compatible with?

This blade is suitable for cordless circular saws and portable table saws. The 5/8" bore (15.88mm) fits the standard arbor found on most 7-1/4" circular saws. Blade diameter compatibility is contingent on machine type, so always verify your saw's maximum blade diameter before use.

What does the 10 ATB+S tooth grind mean, and why does it matter for framing?

ATB+S stands for Alternate Top Bevel with Shear. This geometry alternates the bevel angle on each tooth while adding a shear component that slices fibers more cleanly than a standard flat-top grind. For framing applications, this means faster cuts with less splintering in wood, plywood, OSB, and hardboard.

Why is the thin kerf important for cordless saw users?

The 0.069" kerf removes a narrow channel of material with each pass. Less material removed means less resistance against the blade, which translates directly into lower power draw from the motor. For battery-powered tools, this extends runtime per charge - a meaningful advantage during extended framing work.

Is this blade sold as a single blade or only in the 10-pack?

This listing is for the 10-piece bulk masterpack (MPN: P07024-X10), which includes 10 individual ITK-Plus Fast Framing 7-1/4" x 5/8" blades. This pack format is intended for contractors and crews who need to keep multiple saws in rotation without stopping for resupply.
