CMT ITK Industrial Framing/Decking Saw Blade, 5-3/8 in. x 18 Teeth, 10mm Bore

CMT ITK Plus Industrial Saw Blade, 5-3/8-in. x 18 Teeth, 10mm Bore

The CMT ITK Plus Industrial 5-3/8-in. Saw Blade is engineered for fast, dependable cutting on portable and cordless saws. Designed with a thin kerf, this framing and decking blade helps reduce the cutting load on less-powerful saws while delivering smooth, efficient performance. With an excellent price-to-performance ratio, it is a practical choice for contractors, remodelers, and woodworkers who need reliable cutting performance on the jobsite.

The laser-cut, heavy-duty steel blade plate is hardened to 46-48 Rockwell for excellent resistance and durability. Expansion slots help dissipate heat and reduce operating noise, while the anti-vibration design promotes smoother cutting and improved blade stability. The thin 0.059-in. kerf allows for faster cuts and helps minimize material waste.

Precision-ground micrograin carbide teeth provide long-lasting cutting performance and clean, smooth results in wood and wood-based materials. The carbide teeth are brazed to the blade body with a specialized copper-silver-copper trimetallic bond, creating a strong connection designed to withstand demanding cutting applications while extending tooth life.

Designed for Framing, Decking, and Construction

With an 18-tooth configuration and specialized tooth geometry, this CMT ITK Plus blade is built for fast cutting rather than sacrificing productivity for unnecessary resistance. It is well suited for framing, decking, remodeling, and general construction applications involving lumber, plywood, and OSB sheets.
