Key Features

Clean Crosscuts

The 52-tooth layout is built for smooth, clean cuts in veneered plywood, melamine, sheet goods, and both hard and soft woods. If finish quality matters more than rough framing speed, this is the right blade setup.

Stable in the Cut

The oversized 30 mm arbor helps the blade seat securely on the saw, which cuts down vibration and helps the Festool plunge cut saw blade track more precisely through finish material.

Thin Kerf Efficiency

With a 2.4 mm cutting width, the blade removes less material and meets less resistance. That means easier cutting, less waste, and less strain when you are working through sheet stock all day.

Overview

Festool 495381 Fine Tooth Cross-Cut Saw Blade for TS 75 Plunge Cut Saw – 52 Tooth is a carbide-tipped circular saw blade made for clean, accurate crosscuts in finish-sensitive wood products. This is a circular saw blade designed for smooth cross-cutting in veneered plywood, sheet goods, melamine, and hard and soft woods. Model Number: 495381. If you use a TS 75 and care more about cut quality than brute feed speed, this is the blade that makes the saw earn its keep.

The big story here is the tooth pattern and how it behaves in finished material. This blade uses 52 teeth with an alternating top bevel grind, which means the teeth slice left and right in sequence to leave a cleaner top edge. On the job, that matters when you are trimming down prefinished panels, cutting melamine, or breaking down veneered stock where chipping can ruin the piece before installation even starts.

The 210 mm diameter, 2.4 mm cutting width, and 1.8 mm blade plate strike a smart balance for a plunge saw blade. The thin kerf design reduces resistance in the cut, so the saw moves through material more efficiently and wastes less stock. For sheet goods and cabinet parts, that can mean smoother feed, better control, and less cleanup on exposed edges.

Festool also built this blade with practical stability features that show up in real use. The oversized 30 mm arbor gives the blade a secure connection to the saw, which helps reduce vibration and improves cut precision. Laser-cut expansion slots further calm the blade during operation, helping it run quieter and smoother, especially when you are making long finish cuts where chatter shows up fast.

In terms of application, this is not a general-purpose framing blade and it is not pretending to be. It is tuned for fine wood cutting where surface finish matters. That makes it a strong choice for cabinet installers, finish carpenters, woodworkers, remodelers, and anyone using the TS 75 to cut visible parts that need to fit clean and look clean right off the saw.

Compatibility is straightforward. This blade is suitable for the Festool TS 75 plunge cut saw and uses a 30 mm arbor mount. If your workflow is built around the TS 75 platform and you regularly cut melamine, veneered panels, hardwood, or softwood sheet stock, this blade gives you the cleaner edge and steadier cut quality that justify stepping up from a rougher, lower-tooth blade.

Built for Cleaner Finish Cuts

This blade is aimed at the kind of cuts that get seen after the job is done. When you are working with sheet goods, melamine, or veneered panels, the cleaner edge and reduced vibration help you spend less time fixing chipped surfaces.

• 52-tooth fine cut design for smoother crosscuts in wood-based sheet materials

Pro Tip

If you are cutting melamine or veneered panels with your TS 75, use this fine-tooth blade when the finished face needs to come off the saw ready for install. It is the better choice when edge quality matters more than cutting as fast as possible.
