Silicone coat allows the blade to slice easier through material reducing pitch and resin buildup when cutting pressure-treated lumber. Construction-grade carbide teeth deliver longer blade life. Every other tooth is thinner for faster cuts. The innovative heat vent/expansion slot design reduces vibration for longer life and straighter cuts. Plate is fully hardened to run truer, longer. 24 tooth count blades are ideally suited for framing, ripping, and deck jobs. IRWIN Tools MARATHON Carbide Corded Circular Deck Saw Blade, 7 1/4-inch, 24T (14130)
This Marathon 7-1/4" Deck Blade is the perfect blade if you are building a deck. This Marathon has a silicone coat for applications in pressure treated lumber. The Silicone Coat allows the blade to slice easier through material reducing pitch and resin build-up. The specially engineered heat vents reduces heat and resin build-up which can lead the blade to binding and warping. The thin kerf design provides a faster, cleaner cutting action. The unique shoulder design gives you more support behind each tooth and also gives you consistent chip removal. The alternate top bevel tooth grind is a great feature to have when cross cutting and ripping. A blend of precision design and engineering, exacting tolerances, and unparalleled production quality is what makes Marathon blades last far longer than conventional blades.
