Saw blades for table saw

254 mm blades for the table saw. Tooth count and tooth shape between them decide the cut. A 24-tooth alternating-bevel blade rips solid timber quickly. A 40-tooth is the general-purpose choice. A 60-tooth leaves a finish clean enough to go straight to assembly. The 80-tooth trapezoidal-flat blades are the specialists — one ground for aluminium and plastics, one for laminate — where a wood blade would chip the face or grab the material.
