16 in. Rip Saw Blade, 36T STG

Description

The largest production table saws and sliding panel saws handling extra-wide hardwood slabs and full-capacity lumber need a rip blade at 16 in. that delivers efficient material removal at that scale. This 36-tooth STG rip blade on a 1 in. bore handles heavy ripping in wide, thick hardwood stock on machines built for 16 in. blades. Straight top grind geometry at 36 teeth combines the chisel-action efficiency of STG ripping with enough tooth count to deliver a rip face smoother than lower-count rip blades at comparable feed rates. At 16 in., 36 teeth maintain generous gullet volume for chip clearance in heavy, wide rip cuts through dense hardwood without loading up — the combination of diameter, tooth count, and STG geometry keeps material moving at production feed rates through full-thickness slabs and wide furniture stock. The 1 in. bore fits heavy-duty production saws in this class. Carbide tips are brazed and ground to maintain STG geometry through demanding production rip cycles in oak, maple, hickory, and wide furniture-grade hardwood stock.
