Highlights: 160mm diameter Contractor Series TCT blade with 40 teeth and 20/16mm bore for smooth, controlled cuts in wood and boards
The Tork Craft Contractor TCT Circular Saw Blade 160mm x 40T x 20/16mm is part of the Tork Craft Contractor Series – a professional-grade range engineered for reliable, repeatable performance on site.

The 20mm bore is supplied with a 16mm reducing bush, allowing the blade to fit a wide selection of circular saws commonly found on building sites and in workshops. Its 160mm diameter offers a great balance between cutting depth and control, making it a go-to choice for framing, trimming, sizing and general-purpose cutting where dependable performance matters.
The Tork Craft Contractor Series TCT circular saw blade is a professional-quality blade specifically designed for demanding site work. It is built to handle frequent use, variable materials and tough conditions while still delivering accurate, clean cuts.

Benefits
- Reliable on-site performance: Engineered to perform consistently under real job-site conditions for framing, decking and general carpentry.
- Clean, accurate cuts: 40T configuration helps reduce tear-out and delivers neat edges, saving time on rework and finishing.
- Flexible compatibility: 20/16mm bore setup allows the same blade to be used across different saws in the workshop or on the crew’s tools.
- Long-lasting cutting edge: Tungsten carbide tips retain sharpness for longer than standard steel, meaning fewer blade changes and higher productivity.
Extra Information
- Ideal for use on construction sites, in joinery shops, fit-out projects and home workshops where dependable performance is required.
- Suitable for cutting softwood, many hardwoods, plywood, chipboard and other common wood-based panels.
- Best used with circular saws that are rated for 160mm blades and are correctly guarded and maintained.
- To extend blade life, avoid forcing the cut, keep the blade free from pitch and resin build-up, and store it safely when not in use.
Pro Tip
- When cutting sheet goods or visible trim, support the workpiece fully and use a guide rail or straight edge with your circular saw. This, combined with the 40T Contractor blade, helps deliver straight, splinter-free cuts that need minimal sanding or edging.

Safety
- Wear eye, ear and dust protection when cutting to protect against flying chips, noise and fine dust.
- Disconnect the saw from the power source before fitting, adjusting or removing the blade.
- Ensure the blade is mounted correctly, with the rotation arrow matching the saw’s direction of travel, and that all flanges and guards are secure.
- Use appropriate supports for the workpiece to prevent pinching or kickback and keep hands well clear of the cutting line.
- Allow the blade to reach full speed before entering the cut and wait until it has stopped completely before setting the saw down.
