Festool WOOD RIP CUT HW 210x2,6x30 PW16 Saw Blade

At a Glance: Fast-cutting 210mm carbide saw blade with 16 PW teeth and a 28° cutting angle for efficient rip cuts in solid wood with the Festool TS 75.

Power through solid timber with speed and less effort using the Festool WOOD RIP CUT HW 210x2,6x30 PW16 saw blade. Purpose-designed for the Festool TS 75 plunge-cut saw, this professional 210mm blade combines a low 16-tooth count, aggressive 28° cutting angle and application-specific PW tooth geometry to deliver rapid cutting progress along the grain. Its high-quality steel blade body and fine-grain carbide teeth provide excellent durability, reliable tracking and dependable performance in both hardwood and softwood. Whether splitting thick boards, sizing solid timber or completing demanding construction work, this blade is built for efficient ripping where cutting speed and reduced feed resistance matter most.

The high-performance Festool blade for rapid solid-wood rip cuts

Rip cutting follows the direction of the wood grain and requires a tooth design capable of clearing long wood fibres and large chips efficiently. The WOOD RIP CUT blade's balanced tooth geometry, generous gullets and positive cutting angle reduce the effort required to move the TS 75 through substantial timber, providing faster progress than a fine-tooth or universal blade.

Product highlights

Optimised for rip cutting: Engineered specifically for fast cuts along the grain in solid timber.
Fast cutting progress: The 16-tooth configuration removes material efficiently and reduces cutting resistance.
Positive 28° cutting angle: Produces an aggressive cutting action with less feed force.
Fine-grain carbide teeth: High-quality carbide provides dependable sharpness and professional durability.
Application-specific PW tooth form: Balanced tooth geometry supports rapid chip removal and efficient solid-wood cutting.
Made for the TS 75: Precisely matched to the designated Festool plunge-cut saw.
Hardwood and softwood capability: Suitable for a broad range of natural solid-timber applications.
Festool colour coding: Helps users identify the correct blade category more quickly.

Product Compatibility

Festool TS 75: Purpose-designed for the Festool TS 75 plunge-cut saw.
210mm blade system: Requires a machine designed to accept the specified 210mm blade diameter.
30mm arbor: The saw spindle and flange system must match the blade's 30mm bore exactly.
Solid hardwood: Suitable for rapid rip cuts in compatible hardwood boards and timber.
Solid softwood: Ideal for efficient cutting of softwood boards, beams and construction timber.
Not a fine-cut blade: Select a Festool WOOD FINE CUT blade when clean cross-cut edges are more important than cutting speed.
Material limitation: Not intended for aluminium, steel, plastics, laminate or other materials requiring a specialised blade.
Machine limitation: Do not use with smaller Festool saws such as TS 55 models, which require different blade dimensions.

Extra Information

This blade is optimised for cutting parallel to the wood grain and is not intended to replace a fine-tooth blade for clean cross cuts.
The low tooth count and generous chip spaces allow rapid removal of long wood fibres and larger chips.
A 28° positive cutting angle provides an aggressive cutting action, so the saw must always be controlled firmly and used according to its operating instructions.
The blade should be sharpened or replaced when increased feed effort, burning, vibration or declining cut quality becomes noticeable.
Always confirm the blade diameter, bore, kerf, blade-body thickness and machine compatibility before installation.
The saw blade is supplied individually; saw, guide rail and dust extraction equipment are not included.

Pro Tips

Use the WOOD RIP CUT blade for long cuts along the grain, then change to a finer-tooth blade when the job requires clean visible cross-cut edges.
Set the cutting depth only slightly deeper than the material to improve control and reduce unnecessary blade exposure.
Use a Festool guide rail for long, straight and accurately positioned rip cuts.
Support long timber adequately on both sides of the cut to prevent the kerf from closing and pinching the blade.
Keep the blade clean and free from resin build-up, as contamination increases heat and feed resistance.
Connect effective dust extraction to improve visibility and reduce loose chips around the cutting area.
Allow the saw to reach full operating speed before entering the workpiece and maintain a steady feed rate.
Inspect reclaimed timber carefully for concealed screws, nails and staples before cutting.

How to Use

Disconnect the TS 75 from its power source and wait for the existing blade to stop completely.
Engage the machine's blade-changing mechanism and spindle lock according to the Festool operating instructions.
Remove the existing blade and clean the arbor, flange and surrounding mounting surfaces.
Inspect the WOOD RIP CUT blade for damaged teeth, cracks, distortion or contamination.
Fit the blade onto the 30mm arbor with its rotation arrow matching the direction marked on the saw.
Refit and tighten the blade flange using the correct Festool procedure and supplied tool.
Check that the blade is secure, correctly seated and able to rotate freely without contacting the guard.
Set the required cutting depth, support the timber and position the saw or guide rail accurately.
Connect suitable dust extraction, start the saw and allow it to reach operating speed before entering the wood.
Guide the saw steadily along the grain without twisting, forcing or applying excessive feed pressure.
Complete the cut, switch off the saw and wait for the blade to stop completely before lifting or setting down the machine.

Features

210mm blade diameter: Correctly sized for the designated Festool TS 75 plunge-cut saw.
2,6mm cutting width: Produces the specified kerf required by the compatible saw system.
1,8mm blade body: Provides a stable foundation for the carbide cutting teeth.
30mm bore diameter: Matches the arbor configuration of the designated machine.
16 carbide teeth: The low tooth count promotes rapid cutting and effective chip clearance.
PW tooth geometry: Developed for efficient ripping in natural solid wood.
28° positive cutting angle: Supports aggressive cutting progress with lower operator effort.
High-quality steel body: Engineered for stability, accuracy and professional use.
Fine-grain carbide tips: Provide durable cutting edges and reliable performance.

Benefits

Faster rip cuts: Application-specific tooth geometry makes quick work of long cuts along the grain.
Lower feed effort: The positive cutting angle helps the blade advance through solid wood with less force.
Efficient chip removal: Wide spaces between the teeth allow larger wood chips to clear the cutting area.
Reduced heat build-up: Effective chip clearance helps prevent excessive friction during demanding cuts.
Reliable machine performance: The blade dimensions and tooth geometry are coordinated with the Festool TS 75.
Professional durability: Fine-grain carbide teeth withstand regular solid-timber cutting applications.
Broad timber versatility: One blade can tackle compatible hardwood and softwood materials.
Improved productivity: Rapid cutting progress saves time when splitting boards and processing construction timber.

Application

Fast rip cuts along the grain in solid wood.
Splitting solid timber boards.
Cutting hardwood and softwood.
Sizing thick solid-wood workpieces.
Furniture and joinery manufacturing.
Deck and patio construction.
Timber-frame and general construction work.
Facade and cladding construction.
Workshop and on-site solid-timber processing.
Applications where cutting speed is prioritised over a fine cross-cut finish.

Safety

Wear suitable eye, hearing and respiratory protection while sawing.
Disconnect the saw from its power source before installing, removing, cleaning or inspecting the blade.
Use the blade only with a compatible machine designed for its 210mm diameter, 30mm bore and specified kerf.
Confirm that the blade's rotation arrow matches the direction marked on the saw.
Never use a blade with cracked carbide teeth, a distorted body, damaged bore or visible impact damage.
Inspect timber for nails, screws, staples and other foreign objects before cutting.
Secure and support the workpiece so that the kerf cannot close and pinch the blade.
Keep both hands on the designated saw handles and remain outside the projected cutting line.
Do not exceed the maximum rotational speed marked on the blade or permitted by the machine.
Use all guards, riving components and anti-kickback features required by the saw manufacturer.
Allow the blade to reach full speed before entering the material and never force or twist the saw during a cut.
Follow all safety and operating instructions supplied with the Festool TS 75 and connected dust extractor.
