Best Blade for Wall Saw

[Brands Imaging]

We just bought a wall saw (used) and we want to put the best general blace in there possible.
2 Questions....

1: What IS the best blade for all types of substrates?
We mostly cut omega bond and varying thickness of PVC - occasionally Acrylic and Lusterboard

2: Can I get something that will cut Gatorboard and other delicate substrates?

Thanks...

we have found this to be a good blade

They also have an 80 tooth version that works very well

is that even a real response?!?

What size is it? I think ours is 8 1/4" or some such odd size which makes it difficult to find blades other than those made for panel saws.

I think it is. Calling a tool by its proper name will always spur better responses.

It also will help you conduct a better search of this website in case the topic has been covered already.

Bought this blade specifically for acrylics and after 2 years of regular use, just sent it back to be resharpened. Much better blade then anything you can find in a store.

Sorry if I was requiring too much effort from you. If you search ye shall find.

I think he thought you were being a smart @ss, as did I, until I realized he called it a wall saw.

I don't have a panel saw. Always had nice cuts using Oldham carbide blades on the table, and circular saws. They're cheap enough that I just replace them when they get dull.

Maybe his saw mounts on the wall? I've actually considered doing that with my panel-saw.

would you then call it a wall saw?

Not if you wanted to do a search- the correct terminology can be important. :Big Laugh
