Why a Circular Saw Blade Burns the Cut

Burning indicates excessive friction, a dull or incorrect blade, poor feed or an unstable workpiece.

Circular Saw Blades: selection checklist

  • Match blade and tooth geometry to the material.
  • Check the blade is sharp and correctly installed.
  • Maintain stable feed and workholding.

How to choose the right option

  1. Stop and inspect the tool, workpiece and machine interface.
  2. Correct the size, geometry, setup or cutting condition involved.
  3. Run a controlled test and inspect the result before returning to production.
