Festool Saw Blade HW 230x2.5x30 TF76 Aluminium & Plastics

At a Glance: 230mm carbide-tipped circular saw blade with 76 trapezoidal/flat teeth for precision cutting of aluminium, non-ferrous metals and plastics using the Festool HK 85.

The Festool HW 230x2.5x30 TF76 circular saw blade has been specifically engineered for machining aluminium, non-ferrous metals and high-performance plastics with exceptional precision. Designed exclusively for the Festool HK 85 portable circular saw, this premium carbide-tipped blade delivers clean, burr-minimising cuts, outstanding durability and a long service life in demanding professional applications.

The finely ground carbide teeth feature a trapezoidal/flat (TF) tooth configuration that produces smooth, accurate cuts through aluminium composite panels, aluminium profiles, Perspex®, acrylic, PVC, hard plastics, fibre-reinforced plastics and non-ferrous metals such as copper and brass. The negative 5° hook angle provides controlled cutting action while reducing material grabbing for improved operator safety and finish quality.

Every Festool saw blade is carefully matched to the machine, cutting geometry and intended application. This ensures maximum cutting performance, optimum power transfer and consistently high-quality results. The colour-coded Festool blade system also makes selecting the correct blade for aluminium and plastic applications quick and simple.

Professional cutting performance for aluminium and plastics

Manufactured using premium fine-grain carbide and precision-balanced steel, the HW 230x2.5x30 TF76 delivers exceptional cutting accuracy, reduced vibration and outstanding blade life. It is the ideal solution for professionals working with aluminium composite materials, plastic sheet products and non-ferrous metals.

Product Highlights

Purpose-built for aluminium: Optimised for aluminium panels, profiles and composite materials.
Premium carbide teeth: Fine-grain carbide provides excellent wear resistance and extended blade life.
76-tooth TF geometry: Produces clean, accurate cuts with minimal burr formation.
Negative hook angle: Improves cutting control and delivers smoother cutting performance.
Machine-specific design: Engineered specifically for the Festool HK 85 circular saw.
Colour-coded identification: Quickly identifies the correct blade for aluminium and plastic applications.
Exceptional finish quality: Reduces the need for secondary finishing operations.

Extra Information

Designed exclusively for the Festool HK 85 circular saw.
The TF tooth geometry provides clean cutting performance on aluminium and plastics.
The blade forms part of the Festool colour-coded saw blade system.
Premium fine-grain carbide increases cutting life and wear resistance.
Always select the correct blade speed recommended by Festool for the material being cut.
Use suitable lubrication when recommended for certain aluminium cutting applications.

Pro Tips

Clamp aluminium securely before cutting to reduce vibration.
Clean resin and aluminium deposits from the teeth regularly to maintain optimum cutting quality.
Allow the blade to reach full speed before entering the material.
Use a slower, steady feed rate when cutting thicker aluminium sections.
Inspect carbide teeth regularly and replace or resharpen the blade when cutting quality begins to decrease.
Always use the correct Festool guide rail where maximum cutting accuracy is required.

How to Use

Disconnect the HK 85 from the power supply.
Install the blade with the correct rotation direction indicated on the blade.
Tighten the arbor securely according to the machine instructions.
Secure the workpiece firmly before cutting.
Adjust the cutting depth appropriately.
Allow the blade to reach full operating speed.
Feed the saw smoothly through the material using steady pressure.
Allow the blade to stop completely before setting the saw down.
Clean the blade after use to remove resin and aluminium residue.
