IRWIN XPERT 500mm 8T/9P Teflon Coated Wood Saw, Universal. Designed for sawing workpieces made of soft and hard wood, plywood, chipboard, and PVC. Rigid 1.00 mm thick blade made of high-quality cold-rolled C75 steel for maximum stability and operator force transfer. The teeth have a three-sided TGT grind, which allows sawing when the saw moves not only forward but also backward. Optimized tooth set for straight cuts. The tool blade has a Teflon (PTFE) coating. Such a surface has less friction resistance and provides 20-50% higher sawing performance (depending on the material). Very comfortable ergonomic two-material handle, ultrasonically welded for secure fixation. The handle also has an enlarged grip circumference (guaranteeing a perfect sense of control during cutting) and optimized hand space, providing more comfort for working with gloves. The handle has facets for constructing 90 and 45-degree angles for convenience during marking. The IRWIN® Jack® range of saws are best-in-class hand saws for modern professionals. Advanced tooth technology and the ergonomic ProTouch™ handle make IRWIN hand saws the best choice for speed, ease, and quality of cutting.
