Title: Circular saw blade sizes
Post by: geoffr70 on 22 January 2012, 05:37:30

Hello, doe anyone know the standard sizes of these blades? The inner and outer diameter please? I know their are different sizes, but is there a common size/industry standard? Just so i don't get an obscure sized one where it'll be difficult to get blades.

Thanks

This may help.
Bosch seem to be 2 sizes 20mm centre and 50mm diameter or 30mm centre and 190mm diameter.
De Walt are 10mm centre and 136mm diameter and 20mm centre and 152mm diameter.
It seems to matter a lot to what type of saw you have - ie is it mains or rechargable and also what stuff are you cutting....
The choice of blades seems endless

I always buy stainless steel cutting blades as the cut is always a finer cut.
