Fit and compatibility
The 153491 fits saws that take an 18-inch blade on a 1-inch arbor. MK designs the wedge segments for excellent undercut protection. Confirm the arbor size and rpm limit in your saw manual before you order.
Getting the most from the blade
Match the blade diameter and arbor to your saw, keep the blade guard in place, and let the blade do the cutting rather than forcing it through the material. Steady feed pressure keeps the cut straight and helps the segments wear evenly. This is a dry-cutting blade, so let it clear dust on each pass and ease off if the saw starts to bog down. Wear eye, hearing and respiratory protection and follow the saw maker and MK Diamond safety guidance.
