Festool HW 160x1,8x20 PW12 WOOD RIP CUT Circular Saw Blade

At a Glance: 160mm 12 tooth rip cut saw blade for fast, low-effort cutting in solid wood

The Festool HW 160x1,8x20 PW12 WOOD RIP CUT circular saw blade is designed for quick, efficient rip cuts in solid wood. With its aggressive 12 tooth layout, PW tooth shape and 20° chip angle, this blade is made for fast cutting progress with less effort when working along the grain. It is a great choice for splitting boards, construction timber, hardwood, softwood and other solid wood materials where speed and cutting efficiency matter.

WOOD RIP CUT performance for rapid cutting in solid wood

This Festool saw blade is built for powerful rip cutting. The tooth shape, cutting angle and blade geometry are matched to compatible Festool plunge-cut and portable circular saws, giving you fast feed speed, efficient cutting and dependable results in solid timber.

Product highlights

  • Fast rip cutting: Designed for quick cutting along the grain in solid wood.
  • 12 tooth design: Coarse tooth layout gives high cutting performance with less effort.
  • PW tooth shape: Tooth geometry is suited to fast rip cuts in hardwood and softwood.
  • Fine-grain carbide teeth: High-quality carbide teeth support long service life and reliable cutting progress.
  • Festool system fit: Designed for selected TS, TSC, HK and HKC saws for efficient, accurate work.

Extra Information

  • This blade is part of Festool's WOOD RIP CUT range for rapid cutting in solid wood.
  • The 12 tooth layout is designed for speed and efficient material removal rather than ultra-fine finishing cuts.
  • For fine cuts in coated panels, veneered boards or MDF, use a dedicated fine cut blade instead.
  • The blade is suitable for Festool TS 55 F, TSC 55 K, TSC 55 KS, HK 55, HKC 55 and HKC 55 K saws.
  • Use with a guide rail where straight, controlled cuts are required.

Pro Tips

  • Use this blade when cutting along the grain in solid wood where speed is more important than a fine finish.
  • Do not use this blade for laminate, HPL, aluminium or plastics. Use the correct Festool specialist blade for those materials.
  • Let the saw reach full speed before entering the timber for smoother cutting progress.
  • Keep the blade clean from resin build-up to maintain fast cutting performance.

How to Use

  • Disconnect the saw from the power supply or remove the battery before changing the blade.
  • Confirm that the blade diameter, bore size and machine compatibility match your saw.
  • Select this blade for fast rip cuts in solid wood, hardwood or softwood.
  • Fit the blade with the rotation direction matching the direction shown on the saw.
  • Tighten the blade securely according to the saw's operating instructions.
  • Set the correct cutting depth for the timber being cut.
  • Allow the blade to reach full speed and feed the saw smoothly through the cut.

Features

  • 160mm blade diameter: Suitable for compatible Festool saws using 160mm blades.
  • 1.80mm cutting width: Reduced cutting width helps users work faster and for longer.
  • 20mm bore: Designed for compatible Festool saws with a 20mm blade arbor.
  • 12 teeth: Coarse tooth layout for fast material removal in solid wood.
  • PW tooth shape: Tooth geometry adapted for rip cuts and quick cutting progress.
  • Colour coded: Festool colour coding makes it easier to select the correct blade for the material.

Benefits

  • Less effort: The blade is designed for rapid rip cuts with low application of power.
  • Longer service life: High-quality carbide teeth help maintain consistent cutting performance.
