WORX WA5035 85mm 44T HSS Blade

Good quality component.

Good quality product.

I own a WORX WX523 20V Cordless Compact Circular Saw and this blade is the replacement for it. The blade also fits the mains powered versions of this useful little plunge cutter.The saw blade works well, and cuts as I require it, which is, for the most part, breaking down of large sheet at the builders merchant prior to loading up for transportation. Fitted to the cordless saw it really comes into its own for such a task, especially when you aren't driving a van.I can achieve acceptable results with these blades, but I certainly wouldn't use them for finishing cuts. For that I always turn to my Festool TS55 plunge saw and MFT/3 dedicated cutting table combo. It's a world away in price, but it's also a world away in cut quality. With it I can achieve glass-smooth factory quality cuts. With the blade here you can expect a bit of roughness and tear-out, but it gets the job done and it has its place. Just don't expect more than it's capable of. Price-wise it's a bit on the high side, but for blade size that has a limited market you could expect that.

Bought the Worx saw as it is the only one that will cut 18mm flooring chipboard properly, the other makes are all too shallow a cut.These blades have cut chipboard, plywood and softwood easily and cleanly. Don't know how long they will last as still using the first one.I bought the other blades at the same time just to see what they were capable of, but have not got around to doing any experimenting yet.If you have a Worx saw, these are the blades to use, if you don't but need to cut chipboard flooring in situ then buy one.

Good value for money

Brill little tool, I use it to rip down ply board and cupboard, guide rail is great to use to rip down Architrave and floorboards. I couldn't be without one of these now as I'm in the trade, as it's one of those tools that when you purchase one you think how did I manage before!

Great little blade for a fabulous little tool.When Bosch, Festool and Wahl start making hand-held circular saws you'll start reading reviews that this cheap little tool is a pile of rubbish but this tool and the blades do a brilliant job.The extractor works fine, changing the blade is easy and the on-off switch arrangement is very well laid out. I have large hands though so it fits comfortably - I could imagine smaller hands struggling to operate this one handed.
