165mm Saw Blades
165mm circular saw blades are the go-to size for cordless saws, offering the perfect balance of cut depth and runtime. Whether you’re trimming timber or cutting boards, these blades are designed for precision, power and durability — with fast delivery from ITS.
What Are 165mm Blades Used For?
Ideal for cordless saws and mid-depth cuts across a range of materials:
- Framing & Joists – General construction and timber trimming
- Sheet Goods – Chipboard, OSB, MDF and plywood
- Laminates – Use fine tooth blades for clean edges
- Multi-Material Cuts – Blades rated for plastic, metal or composite board
Used By:
- Carpenters and joiners using cordless circular saws
- Builders cutting site boarding and stud timber
- Fitters and dryliners working on internal partitions
Choosing the Right 165mm Blade
Consider bore size, tooth count and material compatibility:
1. Bore Size
Most cordless saws use a 20mm bore. Always check your saw’s spec — some include reduction rings for flexibility.
2. Tooth Count
24T for fast rough cuts. 40T+ for clean finishing work on laminate or sheet material.
3. Material-Specific Coatings
Look for anti-friction or coated blades when cutting plastic, foil-faced board or metal-backed laminate.

165mm Circular Blade FAQs
Will these fit my cordless circular saw?
If your saw is designed for 165mm blades and has a 20mm bore, yes — always confirm your model spec before ordering.
Are these suitable for laminate flooring?
Yes — use a blade with 40+ teeth and a fine ATB (alternate top bevel) grind for chip-free laminate cuts.
Can I use these for metal?
Only if marked multi-material or metal-safe. Otherwise, the teeth may dull or break — always check before use.
What’s the best blade for fine cutting?
Look for 48T–60T blades with thin kerf — ideal for accurate trims, veneered board or crosscut detailing.
