🔧 25 Common Blade Aid Terminologies

🔩 Blade & Chain Types

1. Full-Chisel Chain – Aggressive cutting tooth with square corners; fast but dulls quicker.
   
   

2. Semi-Chisel Chain – Rounded teeth for longer-lasting sharpness; good for dirty wood.
   
   

3. Low-Profile Chain – Lightweight, used on smaller saws; easier for homeowners.
   
   

4. Square Ground Chain – Pro-level sharpness; hand-filed or machine-only precision.
   
   

5. Carbide-Tipped Blade – Durable circular saw blade used for metal, wood, and composites.
   
   

6. Dado Stack – Interlocking blades used to cut grooves in woodworking.
   
   

7. Reel Blade – Used in golf and turf mowers; requires spin or relief grinding.
   
   

8. Lawn Mower Blade – Flat or mulching blades for walk-behinds and riders.
   
   

9. Circular Saw Blade – Used in miter, table, or track saws; varies by tooth count.
   

🪚 Sharpening & Repair Terms

1. Laser-Guided Sharpening – Precision alignment for consistent factory-spec angles.
   
   

2. Tooth Angle – The front-facing angle of a blade tooth (e.g., 25°, 30°); impacts performance.
   
   

3. Raker Depth – Depth gauge on chainsaws controlling chip thickness.
   
   

4. Balance Check – Ensures blades spin true; avoids wobble and motor wear.
   
   

5. Tip Replacement – Swapping chipped or worn carbide teeth with new ones.
   
   

6. Tooth Profiling – Shaping the contour of each cutter for optimal cutting.
   
   

7. Gullet Cleaning – Removes debris buildup from blade gullets to restore cutting flow.
   
   

8. Deburring – Polishing off burrs for a cleaner, longer-lasting edge.
   
   

9. Factory Spec – Returning blades to OEM angles and dimensions.
   
   

10. Hook Angle – Determines how aggressively a blade pulls into material.
    
    

11. Side Bevel – The angle along the sides of a tooth; affects finish quality.
