DUAL-SIDED INNER-FLANGE (USA Model Only)
USA models only are supplied with a dual-sided inner-flange
which enables you to safely fit Evolution multipurpose blades
with a 25.4mm (1”) arbor and by ‘reversing’ this dual-sided
inner-flange, you can also safely fit saw blades with a 16mm
(5/8”) arbor as available in the USA market.
Note: Evolution Multipurpose blades save time and money.
Ideal for cutting mild steel, aluminium, plastics and wood
(even wood containing embedded nails)! For use only with
an Evolution power tool saw. All Evolution Multipurpose
TCT saw blades are made in Japan and are of premium
quality and performance.
