Tork Craft Contractor Series TCT Circular Saw Blade 160mm × 60T × 20/16mm (Aluminium)
Highlights: 160mm diameter Contractor Series TCT blade specially designed for aluminium, with 60 precision-ground teeth and 20/16mm bore for high-finish, clean cuts
The Tork Craft Contractor Series TCT Circular Saw Blade 160mm × 60T × 20/16mm (Aluminium) is engineered for professionals working with light metals such as aluminium, non-ferrous alloys and similar materials. With a high tooth count of 60 and tungsten carbide tips, the blade delivers exceptionally smooth edges and minimal burr formation when used correctly.
Supplied with a 20mm bore and 16mm reducing bush, it fits most standard circular saws on site and in the workshop. As part of the Contractor Series, this blade brings dependable, high-performance cutting to aluminium applications — ensuring fast, accurate, professional-level results when finish matters.
The Tork Craft Contractor Series TCT blade for aluminium is a specialist variant within the Contractor Series. It is built for site-ready performance when working with non-ferrous metals, offering high-tooth geometry, superior edge quality and robust construction. It is not a general woodworking blade — it’s tailored for aluminium, light-metal trimming, fabrication and joinery tasks where clean finish and precision are vital.
Features
- 160mm diameter blade Gives sufficient cutting depth for sheet aluminium, profiles and common joinery tasks.
- 60T carbide-tipped teeth High tooth count ensures fine-finish cuts in aluminium and light alloys.
- 20/16mm bore configuration Broad compatibility with circular saws used in site or workshop environments.
- Contractor Series build quality Professional-grade construction to handle frequent use in demanding environments.
- Optimised for aluminium cutting Tooth geometry and blade design tailored to non-ferrous metals rather than standard wood-cutting tasks.
Benefits
- Exceptional edge finish: The 60-tooth layout delivers clean, burr-reduced cuts in aluminium with less post-processing.
- Dependable performance: Built for the demands of contractors and tradespeople working with light metals, offering consistency and durability.
- Tool-fleet compatibility: The 20/16mm bore means you can use the blade across different circular saws without swapping accessories.
- Reduced downtime and rework: Smoother cuts and fewer imperfections mean less time spent finishing or correcting edges.
Extra Information
- Designed specifically for aluminium and non-ferrous metal cutting — not typical hardwood or deep timber cuts.
- Well-suited to fabrication shops, aluminium joinery, metal trim installation, skylight framing, curtain-wall prefabrication and similar tasks.
- Ensure your saw is rated for the blade diameter and check maximum RPM, particularly when cutting metal—non-ferrous cutting has different demands to wood.
- To extend blade life, clean off aluminium swarf and oxide build-up after each session, use a proper metal-cutting lubricant or dry-cut as recommended, and store the blade safely when not in use.
Pro Tip
- When cutting aluminium sheet or extrusions, clamp the workpiece firmly, start at a slow feed to establish the cut, then maintain a steady pace — the 60T blade will give a crisp edge with minimal burr. Use a backing board or sacrificial sheet if access allows to avoid edge distortion or material movement.

Safety
- Wear eye, ear and dust/metal-chip protection when cutting aluminium to guard against flying chips, oxide particles and noise.
- Always disconnect the saw from power before changing or adjusting the blade.
- Ensure the blade is mounted correctly, the rotation arrow matches the saw’s direction, and the flange and guard are secure.
- For metal-cutting use, ensure proper airflow and dust/chip extraction — aluminium chips can burn, stick and cause hazards if accumulated.
- Allow the blade to reach full speed before entering the cut and wait until it has completely stopped before handling the saw or workpiece.
