Makita 10‑1/4" 24T Carbide‑Tipped Max Efficiency Circular Saw Blade

The Makita 10‑1/4" 24T Carbide‑Tipped Max Efficiency Saw Blade gets the job done faster and easier with this carbide-tipped blade that cuts through wood like butter. It has 24 carbide teeth that provide a balance of speed and performance, and it is made with C3 grade micro-grain carbide for durability. The blade also has an ultra-thin kerf, which reduces material waste.

The 10-1/4 in. 24T Carbide-Tipped Max Efficiency Circular Saw Blade is ideal for framers using cordless circular saws for a full range of wood cutting applications. The ultra-thin kerf design (only 0.085 in.) and specially engineered blade teeth assist in reducing the load put on the tool while cutting, resulting in increased cutting efficiency. Users get up to 55% faster cutting and up to 45% more cuts per charge compared to standard blades. A reduced swing width allows for smoother material removal and less cutting resistance. The high-grade Tungsten carbide tips are engineered for improved durability and longer blade life, and the special ATBR (Alternate Top Bevel with Raker) carbide tips provide smoother and faster cuts. Other added features include a blade coating for reduced pitch build-up and slimmer tip bottoms for lower cutting resistance.

Is Makita 10‑1/4" 24T Carbide‑Tipped Max Efficiency Worth It?

The blade is a good choice for general-purpose sawing applications. It is made of carbide, which is a very hard material that can withstand wear and tear. It also has a thin kerf, which means that it removes less material when cutting, which can save time and money.

Pros:

• Made of carbide, which is a very hard material that can withstand wear and tear.
• Has a 24-tooth ATAF (Alternate Top Alternate Face with Raker) grind, which produces smoother and faster cuts.
• Can be used for a variety of sawing applications, including cutting plywood, MDF, and other sheet goods, cutting 2x4s and other dimensional lumber, cutting crown molding, baseboards, and other trim, cutting curves and bevels, making crosscuts and rip cuts.
• Made by a reputable brand.

Cons:

• Priced on the higher end for a circular saw blade.
• Not a specialized blade and may not be the best choice for all sawing applications.

Compatible with Many Circular Saws

Overall, the Makita 10‑1/4" 24T Carbide‑Tipped Max Efficiency circular saw blades are a high-quality option for a variety of sawing applications. They are durable, efficient, and produce clean cuts. They are also a good value for the price.
