MAKITA MAX EFFICIENCY ACCESSORY LINE EXPANDS WITH WOODWORKING BLADES

New MAX Efficiency Miter Saw Blades are engineered for faster cutting and more cuts per charge.

March 26, 2019, La Mirada, CA – Makita^® U.S.A., Inc., manufacturer of high-quality professional power tools and accessories, announced the expansion of the MAX Efficiency accessory line with new 10” and 12” miter saw blades. The new MAX Efficiency blades are engineered to deliver optimal cutting performance in woodworking applications, and more cuts per charge when used with a cordless miter saw.

“Through testing and engineering we have produced a line of blades that cut faster and increase the number of cordless cuts per charge,” verifies Steve Relaz, Marketing Product Manager. “These new MAX Efficiency thin kerf blades are engineered to minimize deflection and deliver the most accurate cuts.”

10" 60T and 80T Carbide‑Tipped MAX Efficiency Miter Saw Blades

The two new 10" 60T and 80T Carbide‑Tipped MAX Efficiency Miter Saw Blades are ideal for fine finish users looking for the most accurate and clean cuts in remodeling and trim work. The blades will cut through a variety of materials ranging from general lumber and plywood to hardwoods and melamine. When used with a cordless miter saw, the 10” 60T Carbide-Tipped MAX Efficiency Blade (B-66961) provides up to 100% faster cutting and up to 30% more cuts per charge compared to its micro-polished equivalent. The 10” 80T Carbide-Tipped MAX Efficiency Blades (B-66977) provides 65% faster cutting and 75% more cuts per charge.

12" 60T, 80T, and 100T Carbide‑Tipped MAX Efficiency Miter Saw Blades

Makita launched three 12” blades with tooth counts of 60, 80, and 100. Also ideal for the fine finish user, these blades are designed for cutting base and crown molding.

Features of MAX Efficiency Saw Blades

Each MAX Efficiency blade is expertly tensioned for precision and true cutting and manufactured from high quality hardened steel for added durability. Specially engineered ATAFR (Alternate Top Alternate Face w/ Raker) carbide tips assist to reduce the load put on the tool while cutting and provide smoother and faster cuts. The thin kerf carbide tip design provides greater efficiency with less drag on the motor and minimal material loss.

These new MAX Efficiency Saw Blades join the 6-1/2” 25T and 7-1/4” 24T Carbide-Tipped Circular Saw Blades. For more information on MAX Efficiency blades and accessories, please visit makitatools.com
