Choose the Right Tooth: The Cutting Philosophy Behind Saw Blades


Only by gaining a deep understanding of the characteristics and applications behind tooth profiles can we select the optimal blade to tackle a wide variety of materials.

Today, the alloy saw blade market boasts a wide variety of products and diverse tooth profiles, inevitably ranging from high-quality to substandard. If purchasers lack specialized knowledge, they can easily make the wrong choice, thereby compromising production efficiency and product quality. In fact, different tooth profiles represent tailored cutting solutions designed for specific materials.

The left-and-right teeth (alternating teeth) are the most versatile—they are sharp, have a large angle, allow for smooth chip removal, cut quickly, and are easy to resharpen. They are the mainstay for cutting both soft and hard solid woods and are occasionally used for cutting thin aluminum sheets as well.

The trapezoidal-flat tooth combines trapezoidal and flat teeth. Although its grinding process is complex, it can significantly reduce the risk of veneer chipping and cracking. It’s specially designed for single- or double-faced engineered boards, fire-resistant boards, and other similar materials. It’s also an ideal choice for aluminum cutting, as it prevents sticking and maintains a smooth, glossy finish.

The reverse-angled (reverse-conical) tooth is commonly used in the bottom-groove saw of panel-cutting saws. When processing double-faced engineered boards, it first adjusts the thickness to create the bottom groove, and then the main saw completes the cutting, thereby perfectly avoiding chipping along the saw cut edges.

Based on the advantages of sharpness and easy chip removal, the left-right flat teeth incorporate a flat-tooth design that prevents chipping. This design is particularly well-suited for brittle materials such as acrylic and plastics.

Flat-tooth blades are the most basic type; their sawing surface is relatively rough and cutting speed is slower. However, they excel in ease of sharpening and low cost, making them ideal for sawing common woods or for grooving operations where maintaining a smooth groove bottom is essential.

Only by gaining a deep understanding of the characteristics and applications behind tooth profiles can we select the optimal blade to handle a wide variety of materials. For purchasers, this is not only a guide to avoid pitfalls but also a crucial step toward enhancing efficiency and quality.
