Carbide Saw Tips
Carbide saw tips are high-quality, wear-resistant tungsten carbide tips that provide excellent cutting performance. These tips resist damage from hard objects, such as nails and other metals encountered in wood.
Carbide-tipped saw blades are highly effective for cutting both metal and wood. The outstanding wear-resistant properties of cemented carbide ensure that the saw blade remains sharp for an extended period.
To cater to different working conditions and materials, we have developed various grades of carbide saw tips. These grades are designed to enhance cutting performance and adaptability to different materials.
Our range of saw tips includes:
- European series
- U.S. Standard series
- Nonstandard saw tips
- Saw tips specifically designed for metal cutting and hand saws.

Carbide Saw Tip Grades
| Grade | Grain | Binder (%) | Hardness (HRA) | Density (g/cm³) | TRS (MPa) | ISO Code | Applications |
| YM01 | Submicron | 2.8 | 94.8 | 15.14 | 2200 | K01 | The first choice for electronic saws, panel saws, and particleboard processing. It is also suitable for cutting medium and high density boards, composite boards, etc. |
| YM03 | Submicron | 3.0 | 94.2 | 15.15 | 2400 | K01 | Panel saw blades are used to process composite materials such as medium and high density fiberboard, particleboard, and veneer. It is also suitable for processing thin aluminum profiles. |
| YM35 | Submicron | 4.8 | 93.4 | 15.00 | 2500 | K05 | Multi-blade saw heads are commonly used for the processing of solid wood, hardwood, medium and high density boards, plywood and sandwich panels. It is also suitable for processing non-ferrous metals such as aluminum and copper. |
| YF5 | Fine | 5.0 | 92.0 | 15.00 | 2600 | K10 | It is suitable for the finishing of ordinary wood, solid wood, composite panels, and non-ferrous metals such as aluminum and uPVC (steel-plastic), with high cost performance. |
| YG6 | Medium | 6.0 | 90.8 | 14.90 | 2600 | K10 | Hardwood, virgin wood, especially suitable for making common wood cutting saw teeth. |
| YF7 | Medium | 7.0 | 91.1 | 14.73 | 2700 | K20 | It is suitable for processing scrub wood, softwood and bushes, etc., and is commonly used in chainsaw blades. |
| YG8 | Medium | 8.0 | 90.0 | 14.72 | 2900 | K20 | Dry wood and softwood; suitable for standard saw teeth. |
| YW2 | Fine | 8.2 | 92.1 | 13.12 | 2200 | M20 | General-purpose metal processing grade, suitable for machining common steel such as color-coated steel sheet, angle iron and thin steel plate. |
| YM15 | Fine | 10.0 | 91.8 | 12.45 | 2300 | P25 | It is suitable for semi-finishing and finishing of stainless steel, carbon steel and tool steel. It is especially suitable for the processing of medium-sized and high-hardness steel pipes, billets and steel tiles. It can also be used for wood cutting with nails. |
| YG6S | Medium | 6.5 | 91.2 | 14.70 | 2000 | K10 | For standard woodworking saw teeth; cost-effective. |
| YG8S | Medium | 8.0 | 90.8 | 14.50 | 2000 | K20 | For standard woodworking saw teeth; cost-effective. |
| YG11C | Coarse | 11.0 | 87.0 | 14.40 | 2800 | G20 | Suitable for peeling and processing frozen wood, stumps and softwood, especially logs. |

| Application | Recommended grade | Key benefit for you |
|---|---|---|
| Log sawing (softwood) | Medium grain, 10-12% Co | Balanced wear and toughness; fewer tip losses |
| Log sawing (hard/frozen wood) | Fine grain, 6-8% Co | Higher hardness keeps the edge sharp longer |
| Re-saw / band mills | Sub-micron, 6% Co | Impact resistance at high feed speeds |
| Metal-cutting circular saws | Fine grain, 8-10% Co | Heat resistance extends regrind intervals |
| Scragg / board edgers | Coarse-tough, 12-15% Co | Withstands heavy shock and nail strikes |
Frequently Asked Questions
Which tip shapes and sizes are standard?
Common saw tip profiles and sizes for circular saw blades are in stock; custom geometries are produced to drawing.
Which grades suit hardwood vs metal cutting?
How are tips packed for brazing?
Tips are packed by size in sealed boxes, ready for automatic or manual brazing lines.
What is the MOQ and can I order samples first?
There is no fixed MOQ for standard items. Sample orders are welcome so you can verify quality before volume production; shipping is freight collect.
What is the typical lead time?
Standard items are usually shipped in 7–15 days. Custom shapes depend on complexity and are confirmed with the quotation.
