CMT Industrial Panel Sizing Saw Blade - 450 x 80mm, 72-Tooth TCG is engineered for high-production panel sizing operations where clean, chip-free results on single sheets and multiple panels are essential. Designed by CMT for use on industrial panel sizing machines, this 450mm circular saw blade features a Triple Chip Grind (TCG) tooth geometry and a COMBI5 pin hole configuration that aligns with standard industrial arbor setups. With a 72-tooth count and a 16 deg. cutting angle, this blade delivers the precision and consistency demanded by professional panel processing environments working with materials like melamine, laminate, chipboard, and MDF.

Key Features

• Triple Chip Grind (TCG) Tooth Geometry - alternating flat and chamfered teeth scrape and shear simultaneously, producing chip-free edges on coated panels and reducing tearout on melamine and double-sided laminate surfaces.
• 72 Carbide Teeth (HW Material) - a high tooth count combined with hard metal (HW) carbide tips maintains cutting performance over extended production runs, reducing the frequency of blade changes during high-volume panel sizing.
• 450mm Blade Diameter with 80mm Bore - sized to match the spindle and cutting depth requirements of industrial panel sizing machines, ensuring proper fit without modification.
• COMBI5 Pin Hole Configuration - the COMBI5 arbor pattern is compatible with industrial panel sizing machine spindles that require pin hole registration, providing secure, precise blade mounting that minimizes runout.
• 16 deg. Cutting Angle - a positive hook angle pulls material into the cut efficiently, supporting smooth feed rates on large-format panel sizing machines processing single sheets and stacked multiple panels.
• 4.8mm Kerf / 3.5mm Plate Thickness - the kerf-to-plate ratio provides adequate clearance to prevent blade binding while keeping material waste to a minimum during precision panel sizing cuts.

Why This Product

• Purpose-built for industrial panel sizing machines - the COMBI5 pin hole pattern and 80mm bore diameter match the specific arbor and registration requirements of panel sizing equipment, eliminating compatibility guesswork and mounting issues on the production floor.
• TCG tooth geometry is optimized for sizing single sheets and multiple panels in a single pass - the Triple Chip Grind design handles the abrasive surface layers of melamine and laminated chipboard without chipping, reducing secondary finishing work.
• 72-tooth HW carbide construction supports sustained performance in demanding, high-cycle panel sizing environments - more teeth per revolution means finer cuts and longer intervals between sharpenings, lowering operating costs over time.
• The 16 deg. cutting angle and matched kerf geometry allow the blade to feed smoothly through stacked or single panels, reducing machine strain and supporting consistent dimensional accuracy across large production batches.
