1050 – 10 – Tooth Sets

Similar to tooth forms, saw blades are also known to have a variety of tooth sets. A tooth set is the number of teeth and how they bend side to side. A blade could have repeating tooth sets that are simple or complex, depending on the way the teeth are oriented and their pattern of repetition.

Different sets are preferred for the job they are capable and their level of noise. Typically they are critical for the kerf, or the slot created by the blade. There are three common tooth sets:

1.Raker – a tooth set with a uniform set angle. The raker tooth set has a sequence of three teeth: left, right and straight. It’s best when used to make quick cuts and achieve an excellent finish.

2. Alternate – this tooth sequence alters between left and right each tooth. When finish is no issue, this blade cuts quickly and effectively. A three tooth pattern that has a precise set angle so the pattern repeats.

3. Wavy – as the name suggests, this tooth sequence has a series of teeth set to one side. Three to right, three to the left, separated by one straight tooth. If you need to saw throught tubing, this is the best choice.
