Extended Product Information

FAQs

What types of wood can this blade cut?

This blade is designed for cutting all types of wood and composite wood, including beams, boards, plates, laths, and roof battens.

How does this blade extend battery life?

The blade features an extra-thin kerf and aggressive tooth angles that reduce friction during cuts, requiring less power from your cordless saw and thus extending battery runtime.

What is the benefit of the ProteQtion coating?

The ProteQtion coating reduces friction, protects the blade from heat buildup, and prevents rust, contributing to both performance and longevity.

How long does this blade typically last?

This EXPERT Wood blade is designed to last up to 2x longer than Bosch's Eco for Wood Circular Saw Blade, thanks to its durable MicroteQ carbide teeth and advanced construction.

What is the bore size of the blade?

The blade has a standard 20 mm bore. It is compatible with saws requiring this size, and reduction rings are available for fitting other common arbor sizes.

Is this blade suitable for metal or plastic?

No, this blade is specifically designed for cutting wood and composite wood materials. Using it on metal or plastic could damage the blade and the saw.

How should I clean the blade?

After use, wipe the blade with a dry cloth. For tougher residue, use a specialized blade cleaner and ensure the blade is completely dry before storing.

Troubleshooting

Blade is not cutting cleanly

Ensure the blade is installed in the correct rotation direction. Check if the blade is dull or if there is excessive buildup on the teeth; clean or replace if necessary. Verify the blade is the correct type for the material being cut.

Reduced battery runtime compared to expectations

Confirm the blade's thin kerf is contributing to efficiency. Ensure no obstructions are causing extra friction. Check the health of your saw's battery.

Blade appears to be overheating or smoking

This can indicate excessive friction. Ensure you are not forcing the cut. Check for material buildup or damage to the blade teeth. Verify the ProteQtion coating is intact.

Difficulty fitting blade to saw

Ensure you are using the correct reduction ring if required for your saw's arbor size. Double-check the blade's bore size (20 mm) and your saw's arbor.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  3. Remove the old blade.
  4. If your saw's arbor is larger than the blade's 20 mm bore, insert the appropriate reduction ring.
  5. Place the new Bosch EXPERT Wood blade onto the arbor, ensuring the rotation arrow on the blade matches the direction of your saw's rotation.
  6. Secure the blade with the flange and tighten the bolt firmly.

Care:

  • Store the blade in its original packaging or a protective blade case to prevent damage and maintain sharpness.
  • Avoid exposing the blade to moisture to prevent rust, despite the ProteQtion coating.
