Festool HW 254x2.4x30 W40 Wood Universal Saw Blade

At a Glance: 254mm universal-purpose carbide saw blade with 40 alternating teeth for accurate longitudinal and cross cuts using the Festool TKS 80 table saw.

The Festool HW 254x2.4x30 W40 Wood Universal Saw Blade is a versatile professional cutting blade developed specifically for the Festool TKS 80 table saw. It delivers an excellent balance between efficient cutting progress and a clean finished edge, making it the ideal everyday blade for processing solid timber and a wide range of wood-based panel materials.

Its 40 high-quality fine-grain carbide teeth are arranged in an alternating-tooth configuration that performs reliably during both longitudinal rip cuts and cross cuts. This allows users to move between different woodworking operations without constantly changing blades, improving productivity in workshops, joineries and installation environments.

The cutting angle, tooth geometry and blade dimensions are precisely matched to the Festool TKS 80. Manufactured from high-quality steel with durable carbide cutting teeth, the blade provides stable running, dependable accuracy and a long service life under demanding working conditions.

A dependable all-round blade for the Festool TKS 80

The Festool WOOD UNIVERSAL blade is designed for applications where versatility is essential. It cuts solid wood, plywood, blockboard, multiplex, raw chipboard, MDF and HDF with controlled precision, making it a practical choice for general workshop cutting, panel sizing and everyday furniture or joinery work.

Product Highlights

Universal cutting performance: Suitable for both longitudinal rip cuts and cross cuts in solid wood and wood-based materials.
40 carbide teeth: Provides a balanced combination of cutting speed, durability and clean finished edges.
Machine-matched geometry: The cutting angle and tooth shape are specifically adapted to the Festool TKS 80 table saw.
Fine-grain carbide construction: High-quality cutting teeth support dependable sawing progress and long service life.
Broad material compatibility: Suitable for solid timber, plywood, blockboard, multiplex, chipboard, MDF and HDF.
Festool colour coding: Yellow identification makes it easy to recognise the blade as suitable for machining wood.

Extra Information

This saw blade is designed specifically for the Festool TKS 80 table saw.
The blade is suitable for both longitudinal and cross cuts in wood and suitable wood-based materials.
The W tooth designation identifies an alternating-tooth configuration.
The 40-tooth arrangement is intended to provide a versatile balance between productive cutting and good cut quality.
The yellow Festool colour coding identifies the blade as part of the wood-machining range.
Always confirm that the blade diameter, arbor size, cutting width and rotational rating are suitable for the machine before installation.
Cut quality is influenced by blade sharpness, feed speed, material condition, saw adjustment and correct workpiece support.

Pro Tips

Set the blade height so that only the necessary portion of the teeth projects above the workpiece.
Use the rip fence for longitudinal cuts and the appropriate cross-cut fence or sliding table for cross cuts.
Maintain a smooth and consistent feed rate rather than forcing the workpiece through the blade.
Support large panels and long timber sections properly to prevent tipping, twisting or binding.
Keep the blade clean and remove resin or pitch deposits with a suitable saw-blade cleaning product.
Replace or professionally sharpen the blade when increased cutting pressure, burning or reduced cut quality becomes noticeable.
Use effective dust extraction to improve cutting visibility and reduce chip accumulation around the machine.
Check the workpiece for nails, screws and other hidden metal objects before cutting.

How to Use

Disconnect the Festool TKS 80 from the electrical supply before fitting, removing or inspecting the saw blade.
Confirm that the blade diameter, arbor size and cutting width match the machine specifications.
Follow the TKS 80 operating instructions to access the saw-blade mounting system.
Fit the blade in the correct rotational direction, matching the arrow on the blade with the machine's direction of rotation.
Install the flange and fastening components correctly and tighten them securely.
Check that the blade rotates freely and that the blade guard, riving knife and safety systems operate correctly.
Set the required cutting height and adjust the rip fence, cross-cut fence or sliding table as appropriate.
Connect suitable dust extraction and fully support the workpiece before starting the saw.
Allow the blade to reach full operating speed before feeding the workpiece into the cut.
Guide the material steadily while keeping hands outside the cutting area and using a push stick or push block where required.
Do not twist, force or pull the workpiece sideways while it is in contact with the rotating blade.
After completing the cut, switch off the saw and allow the blade to stop completely before removing offcuts or making adjustments.

Features

254mm blade diameter: Correctly sized for use with the Festool TKS 80 table saw.

Safety

Wear suitable eye, ear and dust protection whenever operating the table saw.
Disconnect the machine from the electrical supply before installing, removing, cleaning or inspecting the blade.
Only use the blade with the compatible Festool TKS 80 and ensure all dimensions match the machine requirements.
Inspect the blade before every use and do not operate it if the blade body or teeth are cracked, damaged or excessively worn.
Ensure the blade is installed in the correct direction and that the flange and fastening components are properly secured.
Never exceed the maximum rotational speed marked on the blade or specified by the manufacturer.
Keep the blade guard, riving knife and other machine safety systems correctly fitted and operational.
Use a push stick, push block or another appropriate feeding aid whenever hands could approach the cutting area.
Stand clear of the direct line behind the blade to reduce the risk of injury from kickback.
Support long or wide workpieces securely and do not allow them to twist or bind during cutting.
Check timber and panels for hidden nails, screws, staples or other metal objects before cutting.
Do not force the workpiece through the blade or apply sideways pressure to the rotating blade.
Allow the blade to stop completely before removing offcuts, making adjustments or leaving the machine unattended.
Use suitable dust extraction and respiratory protection when cutting materials that produce harmful dust.
