CMT Industrial Panel Sizing Saw Blade - 400mm x 80mm Bore, 72-Tooth TCG is engineered for high-volume panel sizing operations requiring clean, chip-free results on single sheets and multiple panels. Featuring a Triple Chip Grind (TCG) tooth geometry, 72 precision carbide teeth, and a 4.4mm kerf, this CMT circular saw blade is purpose-built for industrial panel sizing machines with COMBI5 arbor configurations. Whether processing melamine-faced boards, double-sided laminate, chipboard, or MDF in production environments, the 400mm diameter and 80mm metric bore ensure compatibility with standard panel sizing machine spindles while the TCG grind geometry minimizes edge chipping for a finish-ready cut on both faces of the workpiece.

Key Features

• Triple Chip Grind (TCG) Tooth Geometry - the alternating flat and chamfered tooth pattern shears through abrasive panel materials cleanly, reducing edge chipping on melamine, laminate, chipboard, and MDF surfaces so panels emerge finish-ready without secondary processing.
• 72 Carbide Teeth - a high tooth count delivers fine, smooth cutting edges on both faces of the panel, making this blade well-suited for sizing finished decorative surfaces where surface quality is critical.
• 400mm Blade Diameter with 80mm Metric Bore - matches the spindle dimensions of a wide range of industrial panel sizing machines, ensuring accurate, repeatable panel dimensions across production runs.
• COMBI5 Pin Hole Pattern - the COMBI5 locating pin configuration provides positive blade registration on compatible arbors, reducing blade shift and maintaining consistent cut line accuracy during high-feed-rate production sizing.
• 4.4mm Kerf with 3.2mm Plate Thickness - the body-to-kerf ratio provides sidewall clearance to reduce friction and heat buildup during extended production runs, helping to extend cutting edge life between sharpenings.
• 16 deg. Hook Angle - the positive hook angle promotes efficient chip evacuation and smooth feed through the panel, reducing load on the machine spindle and improving cut quality on composite panel materials.
• Tungsten Carbide (HW) Tip Material - industrial-grade hard metal carbide tips retain their edge longer than standard steel teeth when cutting abrasive engineered panel products, reducing downtime for blade changes in production environments.
• 4,800 RPM Maximum Speed Rating - rated for the operating speeds of industrial panel sizing equipment, providing the performance headroom needed to run at production feed rates safely.

Why This Product

• Designed specifically for sizing single sheets and multiple panels simultaneously, this blade handles the demands of production panel sizing without compromising on cut quality across high-volume workflows.
• The TCG tooth grind paired with a 72-tooth count addresses one of the most common challenges in panel sizing - chipping on melamine and double-sided laminate faces - delivering cleaner edges that reduce rework and material waste.
• The COMBI5 pin hole pattern and 80mm metric bore make this blade a direct fit for industrial panel sizing machines using COMBI arbor configurations, simplifying blade selection for machine operators sourcing replacement or additional blades.
• At 4,800 RPM maximum rated speed, this CMT industrial blade is rated for the rotational demands of dedicated panel sizing equipment, ensuring the blade operates within safe parameters at the speeds these machines are designed to run.
