Tool choices for do-it-yourself success

Saw Blades

Precise lumber cuts help any job go smoother, and using the correct saw blade makes the job easier and safer. New blade technology, such as the thin kerf design of MARATHON circular saw blades, means faster, cleaner cuts. This blade also features C3 carbide-tipped teeth for longer blade life -- up to six times longer than competing blades.

Other features to look for when purchasing saw blades:

  • A shoulder design to put more metal and support behind your cutting action.
  • Heat vents, which reduce the chance of wood resin build-up that shortens blade life.
  • Silicone coatings on blades, to prevent resin and pitch build-up associated with pressure-treated lumber.
