Evolution Blades

Saw blades differ depending on the job and type of saw you’re using.  Browse our saw blades for a variety of tools and uses, including chop saw blades, circular saw blades, jigsaw blades, mitre saw blades, reciprocating saw blades, table saw blades and more. If you’re struggling to figure out which saw blade is right for your current job, get in touch - one of our power tool experts will be happy to help.

TCT stands for Tungsten Carbide Tipped and it refers to saw blades that use Tungsten Carbide for the blade teeth. Tungsten Carbide is an incredibly tough material, able to be sharpened to a razors edge and durable enough to cut through new and reclaimed wood as well and mild steel, non-ferrous metals, plastics and composites when a suitably high grade of carbide is chosen. All Evolution TCT blades use Japanese sourced carbide teeth of the very highest quality that lasts longer and cuts sharper than lower quality grades.

Diamond saw blades are made with a segmented cutting edge that is impregnated with industrial diamond grit. These blades are suitable for cutting all types of masonry including bricks, blocks, concrete and reinforced slab as well as decorative stonework. Evolution offer a range of Premium Diamond Blades that have a 30% higher diamond density in the cutting edge making them the perfect choice for cutting harder materials. Evolution's Electric Disc Cutter also offer water dust suppression in the R300DCT+ model, this further enhances blade life and increases cutting speed by lubricating the blade during cutting and minimising dust production.

Evolution saw blades come in sizes ranging from 165mm for our compact circular saws to 355mm for our largest heavy Duty Chop Saws. When considering purchasing a saw blade you need to ensure that the blade size, arbor size and max speed are suitable for the machine you want to use them on. Our Multi-material and
material specific metal and wood cutting blades are available in 165-355mm, our
Diamond Disc Cutter blades are available in 230mm, 255mm and 300mm.

The number of teeth on a saw blade is determined by various factors, including the type of blade, its size, the material it's meant to cut, and the tool's speed. Larger blades typically have more teeth per square inch due to their higher rotation speed. Our Multi-material blades are crafted with a precise tooth count per inch, and carefully integrated into the overall blade design. This ensures optimal performance, delivering swift, precise, and clean cuts across a wide range of materials. If you need specific information about any of our blades, tools, or advice on the best tool for a particular cutting task, please reach out to our customer service department.

Because they cut better that way. The tooth count on all Evolution blades is optimised for the rotation speed of the saw the blade is designed for. Our saws are equipped with higher-torque, reduced RPM motors that give you a better cut when used with our blades. It is the combination of blade design, TCT technology and higher-torque motors that enables Evolution multi-material saws and blades to cut new and reclaimed wood, mild steel, non-ferrous metals as well as plastics and composites with just one blade.

To maximise the life of your blade clean it regularly to remove any build up on the surface of the blade body and teeth. We recommend a quick wipe with a rag soaked in automotive brake cleaner or WD40 to keep your blade in tip-top cutting
condition. If you cut a lot of ‘sappy’ wood or plywood you can remove the blade and soak and scrub it with brake cleaner and a stiff bristle brush to remove heavy build up and restore cutting performance.

When cutting with your saw don’t apply excess pressure to force the workpiece through the blade, let the blade do the work and gently feed the workpiece through the blade.

Multi-material blades excel at cutting a wide range of materials, making them an excellent choice for tasks involving wood, metal, and plastics. However, if your primary focus is wood, then you'll want a blade optimized specifically for that purpose. Our wood blades are equipped with a modified ATB tooth profile, along with rake and draft angles that are finely tuned for cutting all types of wood. This results in a faster, cleaner cut with reduced tear-out.

Multi-material blades are designed to perform exceptionally well across a broad spectrum of materials, making them an excellent choice for cutting wood, mild steel, non-ferrous metals, and plastics. However, if your primary application is metal cutting, you'll want a blade that's tailored precisely for that job. Our metal blades each feature a modified Triple Chip tooth profile, tooth count, and rake and draft angles that are optimized for cutting materials like mild steel, aluminum, thin metal sheets, or grades 302, 303, and 304 of stainless steel.

The best Evolution saw blades for cutting plywood are the Fine Wood blades. They feature a higher tooth count and specialized tooth profiles and angles designed to deliver a cleaner cut with minimal tear-out when working with plywood and other laminated wood products.

For cutting laminate flooring, the best Evolution saw blades are either the Fine Wood blades or the Thin Steel blades. The Fine Wood blade is ideal for wood-based laminate flooring types. However, for laminate flooring with a protective wear coating made of tough materials like aluminum oxide, we recommend the Thin Steel blade. It has a higher tooth count, reducing abrasive wear caused by the protective layer.
